[humanser] Citation managers and Jaws or NVDA

Sat Mar 11 03:16:33 UTC 2017

Hi all,

Thanks for the vfeedback.  I will give these suggestions a look see.
Elif, I do know the process you described creating folders is
available to me on my university's library web site, so that might
help for additional articles I come across.  I've managed to find most
of my information on Research Gate and Psych Info so far, but as long
as my university has fixed a few access issues on their web site I
should also be able to access the feature you shared as well.

Thanks, and PS: excuse the initial typo please.  I'm unfortunately
working from a less than responsive and finicky computer while mine is
being checked out at IT over the weekend.
