Guest guest Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Great instructions on how to install and use Zotero. However, Zotero also has a standalone version, try here:http://www.zotero.org/support/standaloneThe standalone zotero does not need to have Mozilla Firefox installed in your computer. But being an alpha stage software it is still very klunky. For more robust usage, try Mendeley.Arin Basu On Tue, Mar 29, 2011 at 3:49 AM, Dr. Sanjay Bedi <drsanjaybedi@...> wrote: ---------- Forwarded message ----------From: Yogesh Kumar <yogesh@...> Date: Wed, Mar 17, 2010 at 1:48 PM Subject: Free Bibliography Software Dear All Please find the state of art free bibliography software Zotero form www.zotero.org Few steps to install this software 1.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Dear Arin Basu Its indeed great pleasure and honor to have you here on netrum, clarifying everyone's doubts and adding on to the information. So that's what I have understood - Working with plain text such as latex ------- one needs nothing more than bibtex - Those who work with thousands of articles at once for example ------systematic reviews and meta analyses require complex softwares such as endnote or refman, problem with these is that, these software are only available for windows/Mac platform, so, those who use linux cannot use them.. - In between, these 2 we have less powerful but extremely useful software such as Mendeley, Zotero, and Wizfolio. Which has web based online component of storing and retrieving citations, and an offline desktop version of the software The advantage of these software is their compatibility with other platforms (windows, Linux, Mac), and they are available free of cost. once again thank you so much for your valable inputs that will add to the knowledge of everyone.MAY GOD BLESS YOU.Also thanks to Dr. THAWANI for providing a platform to discuss and learn. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > > > > From: Yogesh Kumar <yogesh@> > > > > Date: Wed, Mar 17, 2010 at 1:48 PM > > > > Subject: Free Bibliography Software > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Dear All > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Please find the state of art free bibliography software Zotero form > > > > www.zotero.org > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Few steps to install this software > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > 1.
