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. -

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. -
