  • How to Manage a Research Library with Zotero by Blog Admin July 6, 2012
    blo gs.lse.ac.uk http://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2012/07/06/manage-a-research-library-with-zotero/ How to manage a research library with Zotero by Blog Admin July 6, 2012 Keeping up to date with research and managing an ever-increasing number of journal articles is skill that must be well-honed by academics. Here, Alex Hope sets out how his workflow has developed using Zotero, Dropbox, Goodreader and his iPad. Article Discovery I use a variety of methods to keep on top of research in my f ield, and to search f or articles when preparing a paper or presentation. Foremost is the use of RSS f eeds to deliver alerts of new articles in journals I f ollow. I use Google Reader to manage my f eeds and usually browse through new f eed articles using Flipboard on my iPad or iPhone. If I come across an interesting article that I think I may like to read and use, I email myself the link. This means that when I check my email every morning, I can navigate to the article and save it in my ref erence manager f or reading and marking up. If I am researching a paper, I tend to search journal repositories such as Web of Knowledge, although more of ten than not I f ind Google Scholar f inds what I need quickly and accurately. Finally I am f inding that Twitter is a f antastic resource f or uncovering new research as an increasing number of researchers and research groups have a presence.

  • Citations and Citation Managers
    Citations and Citation Managers Sean C. Anderson SFU Grad Caucus Publishing Workshop, April 2014 When to cite Opinions vary widely on when, where, and how often to cite and it’s partly an art. With that in mind: Cite a paper when first introducing a concept. If you keep writing about a concept then you probably won’t cite the same paper every time. If you keep writing about a referenced topic in a paragraph, one approach is to cite at the beginning and end of the paragraph. Be weary of over-citing. Don’t use your citations as crutches. You should be weaving a narrative around your citations, not leaving a literature dump for your reader. Interpret your citations, critically evaluate your citations, and show how they fit into your story. Use citations to acknowledge others’ work, aid the reader to investigate more, and convince the reader you know what you’re talking about. But in the end, remember the paper is about your science, your writing, and your thoughts. So don’t cite to show off and don’t cite to hide. Read papers by particularly good writers in your field and think about when, where, and how frequently they cite. Think about what citation styles help you as a reader and which ones hinder. Cite as specifically as possible. For example: Method X has been used with cats (Johnson 2010), dogs (Smith 2010), and mice (Andrews 2011). 1 But, if this level of specificity is not required, move citations to the end of sentences to make your sentences easier to read.

INDIAN PEDIATRICS 1 SEPTEMBER 04, 2021 [E-PUB AHEAD OF PRINT] ROMIT SAXENA AND JAYA SHANKAR KAUSHIK REFERENCE MANAGEMENT SOFTWARES ABSTRACT Reference management softwares are a powerful tool in the researchers’ armamentarium. They primarily help in resequencing, re-styling and reformatting of the citation content in the research manuscripts. They also enable multi-user collaboration on research and allow the researcher to manage database searches and digital libraries. Using these softwares allows synchronization of cloud based digital libraries on multiple electronic devices enabling remote access, and also allows for management of online portfolios. We, herein, describe the basic principles, functions, and limitations of various reference management sofares. Keywords: Bibliography, Citation, Metadata, Research. Researchers often use existing medical literature as books, journal articles, monographs and internet sites, as a base for new research articles. The researcher duly acknowledges and gives credit to the previous researcher for their contribution by citing the referenced literature sources at the end of one’s article.

  • Systematic Literature Review Tools: Are We There Yet?
    Systematic Literature Review Tools: Are we there yet? Dominik Voigt1,2, Oliver Kopp1, and Karoline Wild2 1 JabRef e. V. Sindelfingen, Germany [firstname]@jabref.org 2 University of Stuttgart Institute of Architecture of Application Systems Stuttgart, Germany [email protected] Abstract. The number of publications is steadily growing. systematic literature reviews (SLRs) are one answer to this issue. A variety of tools exists designed to support the review process. This paper summarizes requirements for adequate tooling support and shows that existing tools do not meet all of them. We further investigate whether reference man- agement tools can be used in conjunction with existing SLR tools to address the current gaps in supporting SLRs. For that we evaluate three reference management tools, JabRef, BibSonomy, and Zotero, against currently unaddressed requirements and outline the next steps. Keywords: methods, systematic literature review, tool support 1 Introduction With the ever-growing number of publications in computer science [15], and other fields of research, the conduction of meta studies becomes necessary tokeep up [17, 20]. Kitchenham [10] introduced the systematic literature review (SLR) method to address this issue. The main idea is to systematically search and evaluate all existing publications regarding a specific topic. Computer science researchers that conduct SLRs face three main challenges [18]: (i) For SLR novices, the learning of the SLR process and the definition of the research protocol is challenging. (ii) All SLR practitioners face difficulties as- sessing the quality of primary studies, a critical step within the conduction of an SLR, especially for qualitative studies. (iii) The access and acquisition of relevant studies across multiple e-libraries is a challenge.
