It does now. I went through the setup process slowly again using the
README.org and the org-ref.org in
[[https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref]] as guidelines and it worked.

But I could not install any of the "useful libraries", as none of them
seems to be on melpa et al?

Thanks a lot - and org-ref looks really great.

Cheers,

Rainer


P.S.:

Just for reference: I now have the following in my emacs.org file:

*** org-ref
See [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyvpSVl4_dg][org-ref video]] and 
[[https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/org-ref.org][org-rel github 
site]] for further details (John Kitchin)
