3. beyond reference management
like Mendeley + task planning + team work
like Mendeley + OCR + library classification
+ ref analysis + team work + PDF conversion + browser
like Mendeley + research planning + event managing
+ cloud drive + calendar
Authoring tool in LaTex or Markdown format + collaboration +
templates + citation styles + citing by DOI and URL
5. Looking at each other
Commercial consolidation:
Thomson (Endnote family)
Springer (Papers)
Elsevier (Mendeley)
Proquest (RefWorks)
Functionality convergence
Crucial remain:
choice for desktop and/or web version
options for collaborating/co-authoring
6. Changes in academia
Rise and rise of the PDF
Online search, full text search
Big science, co-authoring
Sharing, social suggesting
Open Access
Open source (e.g. Open Office)
Data citation and publishing
(e.g. Scientific Data)
Preprints
Online first
Versioned publishing
Nanopubs, semantic publishing
Mobile
Open review

7. Reference personae
Organizer: tag, filter, classify, option lover
Risk avoider: classic tool and saves full text
Counting the seconds: demands desktop tool
Change avoider: can barely manage the tech
Follow the (tech) leader: no opinion
Tech lover: switches easily
Play it by the rules: style sensitivity
Capitalizer: wont switch
8. Disciplines we are diffferent!
LaTex in computer
science, physics, maths, philosophy
Custom styles for books etc. in humanities
Vast co-authoring in life science and physics
Manual entry in humanities
