Do you use a reference manager, such as Zotero or Endnote? The Utrecht University Library would like to help you better use and manage references. That is why we would like to learn which tools you use.

You can help us by completing this survey: https://survey.uu.nl/jfe/form/SV_8J4cQoYeWcmewcu

Cheers for open-source software! (again and again)
I'm in the process of moving a large and long-standing #Endnote-library to #Zotero:
The translator for endnote-xml got 86% of items right - but still, 1,800 items needed to be checked manually.
Editing the translator and running it again got the percentage up to 94% - only 680 items to go \o/

Does anyone have experience using #Endnote with #GoogleDocs? I'm trying to assist a team who may have reached some sort of threshold (at 175+ references), and the document is no longer updating. I've suggested that they file a support ticket, but said I'd try to consult the hive mind in the meantime. #AcademicChatter #Librarians #AcademicLibraries #Academia #PhDchat @librarians

Reflecting that I started using #NightshiftEditor 2+ years ago:

Main point of my first post then was that there are tools to help avoiding unwanted references to retracted papers such as the #RetractionWatch data base
https://retractionwatch.com/retraction-watch-database-user-guide/

and you can link tools such as @zotero https://www.zotero.org/blog/retracted-item-notifications/
or since last year even #Endnote:

I'm writing a report on my #ChurchillFellowship travels on #timebanking and #MutualAid and there are an awful lot of #anarchist references and pondering that a Google folder may not be the best place to store them.. is there any open source non spying alternative to #EndNote or similar..it's been 20+ years since I've needed to do this sort of thing! I do use #Notion a bit so that would work too. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Hello #academicchatter, can someone share their experience with referencing in #Scrivener?

I'm considering using it to write up my dissertation but I've been spoiled by #Mendeley's MS Word plugin and it turns out there is no Scrivener equivalent.

So, I wonder how you go about syncing Scrivener with your reference manager? Is #Zotero's RTF scan (and I hear #Endnote can do something similar) the best option?

Ok, trying to get CWYW to cooperate with Word 365 on Mac is so frustrating I am getting a migraine. I have literally followed all their troubleshooting steps 2x and nothing. AGHHHH #amwriting #tech #Endnote

And once again, EndNote consistently displays incomprehensible warnings that mean SFA to the average punter. I wasn't even using EndNote - this is their 19thC hypersensitive MS Word plugin aunt needing the smelling salts after a fainting attack... FFS

#EndNote, for the love of the language, please get someone who can write these warnings so they make sense.

#Zotero #EndNote EndNote Comments appreciated. Testing functionality so our team can decide what to use. Zotero saves references well but seems worse for WYSIWYG in documents. Insertion of citation seems slow for Zotero. Default option just seems to hang. If I switch to classic view I can see my folders and choose a citation and things work ok from there. EndNote I could choose a citation and insert it with one click, does not seem to be a Zotero option. Feedback?

Or at least that's my plain-language summary of a pretty opaque press release.
