a file format or tool for specifying bibliography entries, mostly used in tex-based document builders

Bibtex is a bibliography data format which is widely used in tex/latex documents. A bibtex entry consists of a subset of about 20 different data entries; the subset often depends on the document type.

A sample bibtex entry may look like this:

@article{consensus,
  author = {Jeroen Bruggeman and V.A. Traag and Justus Uitermark},
  year = {2012},
  title = {Detecting communities through network data.},
  journal = {American Sociological Review},
  volume = {77},
  number = {6},
  pages = {1050-1063},
  note = {A comment on 
    <a href="http://asr.sagepub.com/content/75/6/817.abstract">
    The temporal structure of scientific consensus formation
    </a>, with <a href="http://asr.sagepub.com/content/77/6/1064.extract">
    reply</a> from authors.},
  doi = {10.1177/0003122412463574},
  url = {http://asr.sagepub.com/content/77/6/1050.abstract},
  gsid = {3563051433438701877},
  pdfurl = {publications/ASR-comment.pdf}
}

Does LaTeX handle situation when a .bib file has different encoding than .tex file? For instance, .tex is in ISO-8859-2 and .bib in UTF-8. Can the encoding be converted on the fly by LaTeX? Or the only way is to do is manually?
