A Comparison of Researcher's Reference Management Software
Journal of Economics and Behavioral Studies Vol. 6, No. 7, pp. 561-568, July 2014 (ISSN: 2220-6140) A Comparison of Researcher’s Reference Management Software: Refworks, Mendeley, and EndNote Sujit Kumar Basak Durban University of Technology, South Africa [email protected] Abstract: This paper aimed to present a comparison of researcher’s reference management software such as RefWorks, Mendeley, and EndNote. This aim was achieved by comparing three software. The main results of this paper were concluded by comparing three software based on the experiment. The novelty of this paper is the comparison of researcher’s reference management software and it has showed that Mendeley reference management software can import more data from the Google Scholar for researchers. This finding could help to know researchers to use the reference management software. Keywords: Reference management software, comparison and researchers 1. Introduction Reference management software maintains a database to references and creates bibliographies and the reference lists for the written works. It makes easy to read and to record the elements for the reference comprises such as the author’s name, year of publication, and the title of an article, etc. (Reiss & Reiss, 2002). Reference Management Software is usually used by researchers, technologists, scientists, and authors, etc. to keep their records and utilize the bibliographic citations; hence it is one of the most complicated aspects among researchers. Formatting references as a matter of fact depends on a variety of citation styles which have been made the citation manager very essential for researchers at all levels (Gilmour & Cobus-Kuo, 2011). Reference management software is popularly known as bibliographic software, citation management software or personal bibliographic file managers (Nashelsky & Earley, 1991). -

This research aims at exploring the Indonesian Mendely users’ preference on Mendeley use as multimedia-based application in academic writing. The researchers conducted survey research design to find data for deciding the obvious groups’ characteristics on certain topic or issue in a diverse group. Data on this research was taken in 2015 to explore 100 Indonesian Mendeley users’ preference on Mendeley features as web based application in academic writing. The researchers used weighted average find out rate and percentage adjusment for the influence of a binary confounder. The weighted average in this research was automatically generated by SurveyMonkey analytic.

Studies and Analysis of Reference Management Software: a Literature Review
Studies and analysis of reference management software: a literature review Jesús Tramullas Ana Sánchez-Casabón {jesus,asanchez}@unizar.es Dept .of Library & Information Science, University of Zaragoza Piedad Garrido-Picazo [email protected] Dept. of Computer and Software Engineering, University of Zaragoza Abstract: Reference management software is a well-known tool for scientific research work. Since the 1980s, it has been the subject of reviews and evaluations in library and information science literature. This paper presents a systematic review of published studies that evaluate reference management software with a comparative approach. The objective is to identify the types, models, and evaluation criteria that authors have adopted, in order to determine whether the methods used provide adequate methodological rigor and useful contributions to the field of study. Keywords: reference management software, evaluation methods, bibliography. 1. Introduction and background Reference management software has been a useful tool for researchers since the 1980s. In those early years, tools were made ad-hoc, and some were based on the dBase II/III database management system (Bertrand and Bader, 1980; Kunin, 1985). In a short period of time a market was created and commercial products were developed to provide support to this type of information resources. The need of researchers to systematize scientific literature in both group and personal contexts, and to integrate mechanisms into scientific production environments in order to facilitate and expedite the process of writing and publishing research results, requires that these types of applications receive almost constant attention in specialized library and information science literature. The result of this interest is reflected, in bibliographical terms, in the publication of numerous articles almost exclusively devoted to describing, analyzing, and comparing the characteristics of several reference management software products (Norman, 2010). -

Tooling up for Plain Text Academic Writing in Markdown
Tooling up for Plain Text Academic Writing in Markdown I finally got down to doing it! Here’s my brief notes on how I set it up; it may change a bit later on, as my needs evolve, but it should be enough instructions for others to get setup. Motivation I’m writing a white paper on genomic surveillance, so I thought I’d experiment with something new. By switching over to writing in plain text, I can ignore all distractions by other word processors. I’m looking at you, Word, Google Docs and others. Because I get to write in plain text, I also get to version control the text. By selectively committing logical blocks, I can also easily selectively revert unwanted commits; it’s rare, but once in a while it’s saved my work. Because it’s plain text, I can export to anywhere with a bit of configuration. Because it’s written publicly, it’s great. Overview What I do here is basically use Sublime Text 3 (ST3) as a word processor. BibTex libraries are used for keeping track of papers, but I like Papers for organizing more than BibDesk - automatic downloading of PDFs is the best part. My compromise, then, is to export my Papers library to a master BibTex library prior to compiling everything into a single PDF. Papers can also add in Pandoc-style citations, which Pandoc can then parse to make an automatic bibliography. Everything is kept under version control, for reasons stated above. It basically took me one morning’s worth of time invested in tooling this up, but I can already imagine the amount of time saved by minimizing the time spent on formatting references, figure numbers, versioning, and (most of all) being able to write without being distracted. -
Tool Support for the Search Process of Systematic Literature Reviews
Institute of Architecture of Application Systems University of Stuttgart Universitätsstraße 38 D–70569 Stuttgart Bachelorarbeit Tool Support for the Search Process of Systematic Literature Reviews Dominik Voigt Course of Study: Informatik Examiner: Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. Frank Leymann Supervisor: Karoline Wild, M.Sc. Commenced: May 4, 2020 Completed: November 4, 2020 Abstract Systematic Literature Review (SLR) is a popular research method with adoption across different research domains that is used to draw generalizations, compose multiple existing concepts into a new one, or identify conflicts and gaps in existing research. Within the Information Technology domain, researchers face multiple challenges during the search step of an SLR which are caused by the use of different query languages by digital libraries. This thesis proposes tool support that provides cross-library search by using a common query language across digital libraries. For this the existing digital library APIs and query languages have been analyzed and a new cross-library query language and transformation was developed that allows the formulation of cross-library queries that can be transformed into existing query languages. These concepts have been integrated within an existing reference management tool to provide integrated and automated cross-library search and result management to address the challenges faced by Information Technology researchers during the search step. 3 Contents 1 Introduction 13 2 Background and Fundamentals 15 2.1 Systematic Literature Review Process ....................... 15 2.2 Metadata Formats for Literature Reference Management ............. 20 2.3 Queries on Digital Libraries ............................ 21 2.4 Challenges during the Search Process ....................... 24 3 Related Work 29 3.1 Existing Approaches ............................... -
