Reference Manager: Managing Your Search Results
Description:
This hands-on session provides instruction on using Reference Manager, a reference management software program to help you manage references. You can use the software to create libraries that are essentially a record of reprints in your filing cabinets, or that are a record of references you find in database searches or cited in papers you read. As you write a paper or book chapter or book, you can link to references in your libraries. And when you are finished, with a few clicks of the mouse, you can format the references in your paper to meet the formatting requirements of a particular journal. The software maintains a list of reference format styles for a variety of journals. Reference Manager is only available for PC's.
