 If you use [selectrum](https://github.com/raxod502/selectrum), [ivy](https://github.com/abo-abo/swiper) or [helm](https://github.com/emacs-helm/helm) or the built-in package ido, using [`j`]{.key} becomes even more convenient: instead of completing the entry key, you can type any part of the author/editor names, of the title and the year of the entry you want to jump to. You can also see the bibliography file to which the entry belongs. This is a good way to search for a particular entry if you're not sure of the entry key. 
 
+Ebib keeps a history of the entries that you've visited. You can move through this history with [`C-b`]{.key} and [`C-f`]{.key}. Furthermore, using the default commands `point-to-register` and `jump-to-register` (which are rebound in the index buffer to `ebib-current-entry-to-register` and `ebib-jump-to-register`, respectively), you can store an entry in a register and jump back to it at a later point.
