Hi binhpok, thanks for the information, it's very useful. I work at a university and support RefWorks so it's useful for me to find out about all the other services such as Zotero and Qiqqa that are on offer. Thanks to pearltrees I've also just learnt about Citavi. There's so much choice now! by danrholden Jan 26

danrholden, I've started to move away from mendeley-- I found it limiting. I moved to it at a time when it offered better metadata extraction and it was great for managing PDFs. Adding notes to PDFs was pretty good, too, but then I realized that reports of notes was based on 1 PDF at a time. This seems nuts that if I wanted to generate a report of all notes and references based on a search term, I could only do it one PDF at a time.

Since Zotero now has a standalone copy (so it works in ANY browser) and plugins like Zotfile (to rename files) and forthcoming Zotpad (for iPad), it might be the winner for me.

Two notes: Endnote's annotation tools have improved dramatically, but it might still be cumbersome to get Endnote PDFs into iPad and a new one called ReadCube seems interesting. by katebpc Jan 25

I also love this program. I can't say that I've seen too many bugs or found it too slow. Do you know how it compares with Mendeley? by danrholden Jan 25

Refworks - Word processing documents Importing - UW Libraries

Pre-existing bibliographies in word processing documents generally do not have field labels that permit importing into RefWorks. One work-around is to convert the bibliography into BibTex, then import the BibTeX file into RefWorks. http://library.wisc.edu/citation-managers/refworks/importing/wordprocessor.html
Loughborough University supports RefWorks but is also able to offer advice on other bibliographic software. How do you know which software is right for you? Some things to think about when you choose:

Literature and Latte - Scrivener

http://qubrefworks.jiscinvolve.org/ May 2nd, 2012 by refworks As part of the transition to the new library management system we have had to switch off the QConnect buttons within RefWorks. QConnect was the Library’s linking service which connected to the full-text of a reference if it was accessible online.
