[nabs-l] Online citation manager questions

[Katie Wang]

Hi Michael,

EndNote is a popular citation manager, and as it happens I'm actually
in the process of learning to work with it. From what I understand,
there is a basic web version (which is free and probably what you are
referring to) and a full-feature desktop version. I have been working
with the desktop version since my university library has a purchased
license - The interface is a bit cumbersome to use and I haven't
figured out all the kinks yet, but it does seem pretty accessible. I
can't speak to the web version of the software but would think that it
should be worth a
try. Just be prepared - There is a bit of a learning curve... If you
see research in your future then it is definitely a handy tool to
have, but if you are just writing a paper for class here and there
then it might be more efficient to manage your references manually.
Good luck!

Katie
