Description
Referencer is a GNOME application developed to help users manage documents or references and to create a BibTeX bibliography file. Tailored specifically for scientists and researchers, the term "document" generally refers to research papers, although Referencer is compatible with any document type supported by BibTeX. One of Referencer's standout features is its ability to automatically gather bibliographic information, or metadata, for various document types. When a PDF is added to a Referencer library, the application scans for key identifiers, such as a DOI code or an arXiv identifier, and if found, it will make an attempt to fetch the corresponding metadata online. Unfortunately, the process of retrieving metadata for newer arXiv entries has been disrupted due to a format change. Additionally, users can import references from BibTeX, Reference Manager, and EndNote. Furthermore, Referencer seamlessly retrieves metadata from arXiv, PubMed, and CrossRef for PDF documents that contain an arXiv ID or DOI code, making the reference management process more efficient for researchers. This functionality allows for a smoother integration of various academic resources into one's research workflow.
Description
refbase is a web-based reference database designed for managing scientific literature and citations through a platform-independent, multi-user interface. The software helps researchers and organizations store, search, import, export, and format bibliographic references. refbase supports many common reference formats, including BibTeX, EndNote, RIS, PubMed, ISI Web of Science, CSA Illumina, RefWorks, MODS XML, OpenOffice, and MS Word. Users can generate formatted citation lists in HTML, RTF, PDF, or LaTeX for use in research, writing, and documentation workflows. The platform includes powerful search capabilities that make it easier to find references across a shared database. RSS support allows users to follow updates and changes in reference collections. refbase also includes OpenSearch and SRU/W web services for structured access by external clients. Support for unAPI and COinS metadata helps search engines and citation tools discover and use reference data more easily. By combining reference management, citation formatting, search, metadata support, web services, and multi-user access, refbase helps teams manage scientific literature from a browser-based system.
