JabRef allows you to create custom export filters and style files for LibreOffice. This functionality and the installation procedure are described in the help file on Custom export filters. Some users have created export filters that can be useful to many others.
Export filters are collected at https://layouts.jabref.org. Style files for LibreOffice are available at https://jstyles.jabref.org.
This improves author recognition and adds support for more fields to EndNote.
