Reference Manager

Description: Reference Manager aids the easy development of a large bibliographic database. It includes more than 100 pre-defined bibliographic formats and provides the capability to easily create any number of new styles; text formatting can also be applied. References can be retrieved using a number of parameters: author or editor, keyword, journal name, publication year, reprint status, document type or reference ID. They can also be retrieved based on a word or phrase from a title or abstract of an article.

The optional Capture module transfers references downloaded to a text file from selected database services directly into the Reference Manager database; it allows you to create or modify the import definitions used by Reference Manager when importing references. It can be used to import most tagged or comma-delimited text files retrieved from an on-line or CD-ROM database service, or Online Public Access Catalog (OPAC).

Requirements: PC running MS-DOS 3.3 or higher or Windows 3.1 or higher with at least 8MB RAM; Apple Macintosh running System 6.0.2 or higher.
