Citeulike – Connotea 2Collab – Bibsonomy – citeulike – Connotea LARDY Jean-Pierre URFIST de LYON - UCBL http://urfist.univ-lyon1.fr DADI : http://dadi.enssib.fr Maj : mai 2010 CiteUlike, Connotea, BibSonomy et 2collab sont un type particulier de services de bookmarking social, d’aide à la gestion de collections de références bibliographiques. Gratuits, il s utilisent le principe du "social bookmarking" dont le plus connu est Delicious, pour aider les chercheurs à conserver et partager leurs références bibliographiques. Ces services ne gèrent pas le texte intégral des articles. De plus en plus de plateformes de journaux électroniques proposent des boutons pour récupérer les références d’articles : exemple d’edpSciences. Les utilisateurs peuvent décrire les ressources avec des mots-clés arbitraires, appelés tags ou étiquettes. Ces services ne sont pas interfacés avec les logiciels de traitement de texte mais on peut utiliser Zotero comme intermédiaire.

Habituellement, les utilisateurs doivent entrer des informations supplémentaires. Toutefois, lorsqu'un signet est enregistré à partir d'une référence complète de Scopus ou ScienceDirect, toutes les informations de référence sont récupérées automatiquement. Les signets peuvent être rendus publics ou privés. L’auteur peut être indiqué si les utilisateurs sont les auteurs ou les coauteurs du contenu d'un signet des ressources, et un lien sera affiché dans leur profil. 2collab permet de créer une liste de références formatée (Export Create bibliography) selon le style souhaité (11) au format html. Tout le monde peut imprimer ou créer un fil RSS à partir d’une liste de signets. Seuls les utilisateurs enregistrés peuvent envoyer par mail, exporter, supprimer ou partager des signets sélectionnés avec des groupes. Limites Les utilisateurs doivent se connecter à 2collab pour la recherche de favoris. Les recherches sont limitées aux titres des bookmarks, groupes ou utilisateurs. La page d'aide s'affiche dans une fenêtre pop-up et en format de trame, il est difficile d'imprimer une section particulière de l'aide. Une note sur un signet ne peut pas être changée une fois qu'elle est votée. Les performances du serveur sont médiocres. LARDY Jean-Pierre URFIST de LYON 2 Bibsonomy http://www.bibsonomy.org Outil gratuit en ligne, développé à l’Université de Kassel, très lié à l’environnement de publication LateX. BibSonomy gère séparément des signets et des références bibliographiques. Options d’importation : Ex : Firefox ; Zotero (format BibTex) ; données venant de Delicious On dispose de 2 boutons à installer dans le navigateur : postPublication pour importer une référence d’article postBookmark pour enregistrer un signet de page web A chaque import, BibSonomy vérifie si la référence de la publication contient un DOI. Si tel est le cas, un "DOI-link" est automatiquement créé dans la liste des publications. Si ce n'est pas le cas, le nom DOI peut être inséré dans les champs "Divers". L'entrée DOI a toujours besoin d'avoir le format suivant : doi = {DOI name} (for example "doi = {doi:10.1145/1379092.1379123"}) Signets publics, privés + création de groupes Formats d’exportation Organisation hiérarchique des tags Le nuage de tags Plus vous utilisez BibSonomy, plus votre nuage de mots-clès grandit et devienyt moins attractif. Pour éviter ce fait et en plus vous donner une meilleure vue sur les tags les plus utilisés, le nouveau TagCloud ne montrera que les tags supérieurs (top X). Détection de doublons Pour les références scientifiques il y a le problème de détection des doublons, car il existe de grandes variations dans la façon dont les auteurs entrent des métadonnées telles que nom de la revue ou de l'auteur. D'une part il est souhaitable de permettre à un utilisateur d'avoir plusieurs entrées qui diffèrent légèrement. D'autre part un auteur peut avoir envie de trouver d'autres entrées qui se réfèrent au même document ou un livre, même si elles ne sont pas tout à fait identiques. Permet la création d’un CV. LARDY Jean-Pierre URFIST de LYON 3 citeulike http://www.citeulike.org Lancé en décembre 2006, CiteULike est un service de gestion bibliographique collaborative développé par Richard Cameron et maintenant sponsorisé par Springer.

  • 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).

Trant, University of Toronto / Archives & Museum Informatics 158 Lee Ave, Toronto, ON Canada M4E 2P3 jtrant [at] archimuse.com Abstract This paper reviews research into social tagging and folksonomy (as reflected in about 180 sources published through December 2007). Methods of researching the contribution of social tagging and folksonomy are described, and outstanding research questions are presented. This is a new area of research, where theoretical perspectives and relevant research methods are only now being defined. This paper provides a framework for the study of folksonomy, tagging and social tagging systems. Three broad approaches are identified, focusing first, on the folksonomy itself (and the role of tags in indexing and retrieval); secondly, on tagging (and the behaviour of users); and thirdly, on the nature of social tagging systems (as socio-technical frameworks). Keywords: Social tagging, folksonomy, tagging, literature review, research review 1. Introduction User-generated keywords – tags – have been suggested as a lightweight way of enhancing descriptions of on-line information resources, and improving their access through broader indexing. “Social Tagging” refers to the practice of publicly labeling or categorizing resources in a shared, on-line environment.

  • What Makes a Good Reference Manager? A
    1 What Makes A Good Reference Manager? 2 Quantitative Analysis of Bibliography Management Applications 3 4 5 ∗ 6 ANONYMOUS AUTHOR(S) 7 Reference managers have been widely used by researchers and students. While previous performed qualitative analysis for reference 8 managers, it is unclear how to asses these tools quantitatively. In this paper, we attempted to quantify the physical and mental effort to 9 10 use a reference manager. Specifically, we use a keystroke and mouse move logger, RUI, to record and analyze the user’s activities and 11 approximate the physical and mental effort. We also use pre- and post-study surveys to keep track of the participant’s preferences and 12 experiences with reference managers, and also their self-reported task load (NASA TLX Index.) In this pilot work, we first collected 69 13 pre-study surveys from graduate students to understand their experience with reference managers, and then conducted user study 14 with 12 voluntary participants. Four common reference managers, Mendeley, Zotero, EndNote, and RefWorks, were included in our 15 study. The results show, for the same task, different software might require different levels of effort, and users generally preferthe 16 tools that require less effort. We also observe that although these reference managers share similar features, the differences intheir 17 18 presentation and organization matter. Factors such as pricing, cloud sync and accuracy of bibliography generation also influence the 19 preference of users. We conclude this work by providing a set of guidelines for users and developers. 20 CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing ! Usability testing; Activity centered design.

  • Mendeley Reader Counts for US Computer Science Conference
    1 Mendeley Reader Counts for US Computer Science Conference Papers and Journal articles1 Mike Thelwall, Statistical Cybermetrics Research Group, University of Wolverhampton, UK. Although bibliometrics are normally applied to journal articles when used to support research evaluations, conference papers are at least as important in fast-moving computing- related fields. It is therefore important to assess the relative advantages of citations and altmetrics for computing conference papers to make an informed decision about which, if any, to use. This paper compares Scopus citations with Mendeley reader counts for conference papers and journal articles that were published between 1996 and 2018 in 11 computing fields and had at least one US author. The data showed high correlations between Scopus citation counts and Mendeley reader counts in all fields and most years, but with few Mendeley readers for older conference papers and few Scopus citations for new conference papers and journal articles. The results therefore suggest that Mendeley reader counts have a substantial advantage over citation counts for recently-published conference papers due to their greater speed, but are unsuitable for older conference papers. Keywords: Altmetrics; Mendeley; Scientometrics; Computer Science; Computing; Conference papers 1 Introduction Altmetrics, social media indicators for the impact of academic research derived from the web (Priem, Taraborelli, Groth, & Neylon, 2010), are now widely available to help assess academic outputs. Altmetric.com, for example, collects a range of data about online mentions of academic documents, supplying it to journal publishers to display in article pages, to institutions to help them analyse their work and to researchers to track the impact of their publications (Adie & Roe, 2013; Liu & Adie, 2013).

  • Module Five - Management of Information
    Module Five - Management of Information Introduction “Where did I read this information?”, “I know that I printed a copy of this article, but I don't remember where I kept it.” These are very common situations among researchers, students or anybody whose works involve using documents. In the course of learning, teaching and research, information accessed from diverse sources accumulates. Without a proper information management practice; such information may be difficult to find and later locate. In certain instance some people may print the same documents again and again, or search for the same information every time they need it. As a consequence there is a need for this information to be organized so that it becomes easily accessible. Managing this information properly will save time, energy and lead to increased productivity. This module discusses tools and techniques for collecting, storing, organizing and using information. Special attention will be given to the management of the following categories of information: bibliographic references, primary documents such as books or articles, user’s notes and manuscripts. Learning Objectives In this module we will: • Explain the benefits of good organization of information, • Present referenced management tools, • present bookmark management tools, • Discuss information management techniques. Learning Outcomes At the end of the module, one should be able to: • Understand the importance of managing information, • Use a reference management software for storing bibliographic references, •

With these tools, scholars keep track of the scientific literature they read, and to facilitate the editing of the scientific papers they write. This study presents the results of a quantitative survey performed at a research university in Malaysia. The aims of the survey were to observe how much these softwares are used by the scientific community, to see which softwares are most known and used, and to find out the reasons and the approaches behind their usage. Manually questionnaire was distributed to the Master and PhD students at all faculties in Jun 2014. The data collected were analysed through a constant comparative analysis, and the following categories were drawn: a basic practical approach to the instrument, the heavy impact of the time factor, the force of habit in scholars, economic issues, the importance of training and literacy, and the role that the library can have in this stage.

Fore-cite: tactics for evaluating citation management tools Introduction Once upon a time, there was a very limited set of options regarding citation management software, and this set was well understood to the trained mind and did what it was meant to do, and that was good. A leader, Endnote, arose among that set and was consequently supported by academic libraries and other research institutions across the world, who merrily spread the word that technology was breaking the age- long chains of paper’s tyranny—at least when it came to storing and sorting one’s references. As the internet matured, with the advent of Web 2.0 and cloud computing, this set began to expand and the environment began to change. Increased functionality and flexibility meant that users began to question the hegemony of the leader. Librarians, those champions of information, began to develop comparisons to assist users with the gnawing decision of which tool was best.

Abstract Background: Academic social tagging systems, such as Connotea and CiteULike, provide researchers with a means to organize personal collections of online references with keywords (tags) and to share these collections with others. One of the side-effects of the operation of these systems is the generation of large, publicly accessible metadata repositories describing the resources in the collections. In light of the well-known expansion of information in the life sciences and the need for metadata to enhance its value, these repositories present a potentially valuable new resource for application developers. Here we characterize the current contents of two scientifically relevant metadata repositories created through social tagging.
