How can I override BibTeX capitalization conventions?

0

BibTeX attempts to correct the capitalization in the title field such that only the first letter of the first word is capitalized. While this is generally gramatically correct, it can cause problems if the title contains a proper name or an anagram, so that a line in the bibliography file that looks like this: title={IEE Proceedings}, will appear in the bibliography as “Iee proceedings.” Use a text editor and to add quotes around the field so that the line reads: title=”{IEE Proceedings}”, The quotes will prevent BibTeX from applying its capitalization rules to the title of the document and thus will preserve the capitalization for proper nouns.
