# Cleanup entries

JabRef can clean up the entries of a library. To do a clean up of the entries, go to **Quality → Clean up entries**. Then select the actions to be carried out.

![The Clean up entries dialog](https://2944476579-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-Lr3JU9j9iSUW8RYz1hD-2910905616%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-8c886611e1b4b1b31750564b411ef754efca9813%2Fcleanupdialog.png?alt=media)

under the table`Enable field formatters`. Then, under the table, you can select using 2 drop-down menus:

* an entry field (upon which the action will be applied).
* the type of action to be carried out (such as HTML to LaTeX, which converts HTML code to LaTeX code, as described in the window).​ See the [list of formatting actions](https://docs.jabref.org/finding-sorting-and-cleaning-entries/saveactions).

A click on the "circular arrow" icon enables a set of recommended formatting actions (the set of actions will depend on your database type: BibTeX or biblatex).
