Refworks
Easy-to-use web-based product available to all Pacific users (www.refworks.com). RefWorks
allows you to import references from PacifiCat and many of Pacific's subscription databases. You can
conveniently compile a list of sources you intend to read--as you
identify them--and save the list online.
EndNote Web
Available to all Pacific users (www.myendnoteweb.com). EndNote Web allows you to import references from PacifiCat and several of our subscription databases. For many databases, not as seamlessly as RefWorks.
Zotero
Easy-to-use open source tool (http://www.zotero.org/) that is accessible via the web—works right in your Firefox browser. Using Zotero, it is easy to capture and save citations found on webpages, and to add notes and other information to saved citations for efficient organization. Lacks the storage capabilities of Refworks and EndNote Web.
