Typing the text in Mathematica. For a nice example, see Peter Falloon's 
MSc thesis at

  http://physics.uwa.edu.au/~falloon/publications/publications.html

Actually Publicon <http://www.publicon.com> is a much better option.

You can add arbitrary tags to any cell and use these for referencing. 
However, there are much nicer automatic tools for handling references in 
Publicon (which generates Mathematica Notebooks).
