For example, if the library says, "Showing 10 out of 200 references," EndNote imports only 10 references. If the library you are importing is locked or in "Read-Only" mode, all references are imported regardless of what is currently showing. - Open the library into which you want to import the references. - From the File menu, select Import. - Click the Choose File button to locate and open the library you want to import. Select the file and click OK. - From the Import Options list, select EndNote Library. - Select an option from the Duplicates list: o Import All: Imports the references, including duplicates. o Discard Duplicates: Imports the references, except duplicates. o Import into Duplicates Library: Duplicate references are imported into a library called File-Dupl.enl, where "File" is the name of the library into which you are importing. - Set the Text Translation option to No Translation.

  • 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).

  • What Makes a Good Reference Manager? Quantitative Analysis of Bibliography Management Applications
    What Makes A Good Reference Manager? Quantitative Analysis of Bibliography Management Applications TONGAN CAI∗, CHACHA CHEN∗, TING-HAO (KENNETH) HUANG, and FRANK E. RITTER, College of Information Sciences and Technology, Pennsylvania State University, USA Many researchers and students use reference managers to collect, manage, and format references and citations. While prior work has assessed these tools qualitatively, it is still unclear how to quantitatively evaluate reference managers. This paper starts to quantify the user effort required to use reference managers. We first collected surveys from 69 graduate students to understand their experience with reference managers, and then conducted user studies with 12 participants. In our study, each participant was asked to perform a standardized task using four popular reference managers: Mendeley, Zotero, EndNote, and RefWorks. We used RUI, a keystroke and mouse-move logger, to record the participants’ activities and approximate their physical and mental effort. We also used pre- and post-study surveys to collect users’ feedback and self-reported task load (as expressed by the NASA TLX Index.) The results showed that different reference managers require different levels of effort, and users generally prefer the tools that involve less effort. Wealso found that although reference managers share similar features, differences in presentation and organization matter. We conclude this work by providing a set of guidelines for both users and developers of reference managers. CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing ! Usability testing; Activity centered design. Additional Key Words and Phrases: reference managers, task analysis, keystroke, mouse click, mental effort, physical effort ACM Reference Format: Tongan Cai, Chacha Chen, Ting-Hao (Kenneth) Huang, and Frank E.

  • Why Your Company Needs a Reference Management Tool and Four Factors to Consider When Selecting One
    Why your company needs a reference management tool And four factors to consider when selecting one Does the following scenario sound familiar to you? Your company needs to keep on top of the latest research findings to stay competitive. Team members will find and locate PDF articles and save them on their own computers. In another workgroup, the same paper might be found, purchased, and analyzed as well. One year later, the paper might be needed for another project, but since no one could find it on the net- work, it’s then located, purchased, and analyzed again. All of this extra work means wasted time and money for your compa- ny. What’s more, this problem could have been avoided if the PDF and its notes had simply been saved in a place where other team members could find them. Reference management software can help with this challenge, since it provides a central place for saving external literature and making it easy to find again. Originally developed for the university environmvent, reference management programs have been increasingly adopted by knowledge-oriented companies over the past decade. 1/11 Three challenges – finding, saving, and protecting information Reference management software helps with three main challenges that knowledge-oriented companies face: • Being able to pick out useful sources and ideas from the multitude of information that is published and then later find it again. • Working together in a team to create a knowledge repository, thus making each team member’s information and insights available to everyone else in the group. • Protecting this hard-won knowledge from loss or access by third parties.

  • Aigaion: a Web-Based Open Source Software for Managing the Bibliographic References
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by E-LIS repository Aigaion: A Web-based Open Source Software for Managing the Bibliographic References Sanjo Jose ([email protected]) Francis Jayakanth ([email protected]) National Centre for Science Information, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore – 560 012 Abstract Publishing research papers is an integral part of a researcher's professional life. Every research article will invariably provide large number of citations/bibliographic references of the papers that are being cited in that article. All such citations are to be rendered in the citation style specified by a publisher and they should be accurate. Researchers, over a period of time, accumulate a large number of bibliographic references that are relevant to their research and cite relevant references in their own publications. Efficient management of bibliographic references is therefore an important task for every researcher and it will save considerable amount of researchers' time in locating the required citations and in the correct rendering of citation details. In this paper, we are reporting the features of Aigaion, a web-based, open-source software for reference management. 1. Introduction A citation or bibliographic citation is a reference to a book, article, web page, or any other published item. The reference will contain adequate details to facilitate the readers to locate the publication. Different citation systems and styles are being used in different disciplines like science, social science, humanities, etc. Referencing is also a standardised method of acknowledging the original source of information or idea.

  • 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.
