This next variable determines the citation types that are available in org-ref. Links for each one are automatically generated, and completion functions are automatically generated. Users may add to this list in their own init files.

+* Helm interface
+[[https://github.com/tmalsburg/helm-bibtex][helm-bibtex]] is a very cool interface to bibtex files. Out of the box though, it is not super convenient for org-ref. Here, we modify it to make it fit our workflow and extend it where needed.

+1. Make the default action to insert selected keys.
+2. Make open entry second action
