RefWorks

 An online citation manager that helps users to keep track of their references,
organize them into a bibliography, and cite them properly according to the citation
style needed (e.g., MLA, APA, or Chicago)

and sharing
 Used as an add-in/plug-in to various browsers (bookmarked)

Functions and Benefits:

 Create and organize a personal database online

o stores, organizes, and shares information
o automatically creates citations and bibliography in various
formats/citations styles

when importing so you just click on the word to perform the retrieval.

 Others
o Share and collaborate - Organize, read, annotate and highlight full-text
documents individually or share privately with members of your institution
or with any RefWorks user in a collaborative environment.

o Extend library impact - Enhance library’s contribution to research and

student success with a fully supported reference management service,
enabling library admins to set and disseminate institutional styles, analyze

Write-N-Cite
 a feature which allows users to access references in RefWorks while working
within Microsoft Word.
 allows users to insert citation placeholders and when they are ready to add a
bibliography to the end of the document, Write-N-Cite will create a bibliography
and properly format the in-text citations based upon only those references that
have been inserted into the Word document.

 Subscription to the program for one year is $70.00 for individuals.
  For institutions, the $1,500 price is based on a full-time equivalent (FTE) of
less than 2,000 full-time students.
 If full-time enrollment is more than 2,000, the subscription price is $0.70 per
head.

Zotero

Zotero (pronounced "zoh-TAIR-oh") is an open-access, easy-to-use reference

management tool that serves as a personal research assistant and helps collect,
organize, cite, and share research sources.

Functions
 generate bibliographic data
 sync data online
 save documents and webpages
 generate citations
 store data in multiple categories

Zoterobib- a free service that helps you quickly create a bibliography in any citation
style.

Endnote

EndNote is a bibliographic management tool. It is used by researchers to store,

organize, and cite references. EndNote has been constantly upgraded by its
developers. While it is great to enhance its functionalities, it can also be a daunting
job for the busy researchers to keep up to date with all the emerging features and
functions of the tool.

Functions
 Store, organize and manage references including tables, charts/figures, images,
and PDFs in one place.
 Import or search for references from many databases, including PubMed,
EBSCOhost databases, OvidSP databases, Web of Science, SCOPUS, and
Google Scholar, etc.
 Create and format bibliographies in a style of your choice.
 Cite and create reference lists of articles, pictures, tables, etc. in a Word
document or documents in other word processors using EndNote’s CWYW
feature.
 Find fulltext articles.
 Read, annotate, and manage your PDF files
 Share your library or select group with other researchers from the desktop or
online version with up to 100 people.
  Create a citation report on references imported from Web of Science given you
have access to this database.
 Find a matching journal to submit your paper to publish.

DOI

DOI (Digital Object Identifier) - is a unique alphanumeric string assigned by a

registration agency (the International DOI Foundation) to identify content and provide a
persistent link to its location on the internet. The publisher assigns a DOI when your
article is published and made available electronically.

Any digital object can be assigned a DOI number, for example:

 academic journal articles
 research reports
 governmental reports
 data sets
 books
 conference proceedings
 code
 media

In most scholarly journal articles, the DOI will be printed with the article itself,
usually on the first page somewhere: below the title or in the header or footer.
* Not all articles have DOI, but if it has, DOI should be included in the citation.

What do DOIs look like?

All DOIs start with the number 10 followed by a period.

Example: 10.1111/dome.12082
In APA 7, DOIs are formatted as a URL, with "https://doi.org/" before the number. For
example: https://doi.org/10.1111/dome.12082

Who assigns DOIs?

The DOI creation process is governed and managed by the International DOI
Foundation. DOI Registration agencies under the International DOI Foundation provide
services and registration of DOI numbers.
How to get DOI

To register DOIs for your materials, you must use a service offered by a DOI
Registration Agency (RA). RAs collect metadata, assign DOI names, and offer other
services such as reference linking or metadata lookup

Crossref - is one of the registration agencies for the International DOI

Foundation. It assigns DOIs to scholarly research publications. These publications
include journal articles, books, and conference proceedings.

Steps in generating DOI:

1. Become a Crossref Member

 Visit http://www.crossref.org/join_crossref.html
 Organizations that produce professional and scholarly materials and
content are eligible to be a member.
 Accept terms and commit to obligations
 Membership type and cost:
o Independent membership - start at US$275 annually, fee for each
registered DOI ($0.25 and up)
o Membership via a Sponsor - Sponsors pay one membership fee for
all the members that they work with
2. Create DOIs by using the assigned prefix and by adding their own unique
suffix (Prefix + Suffix = DOI). Members create the suffix.
 DOI suffix must be: consistent, simple, short, opaque

3. Register metadata – includes author names, ORCIDs, affiliations, article, titles,

ISSN, ISBN, pages, issue #, volume #s, dates, identifiers
 Create Crossref XML(Extensible Markup Language)
 Upload Crossref XML
 Verify Registration

Other Option:
-manual entry form
(generates XML and uploads it)
 4. Check for submission log email

Search DOI in Crossref:

1. Go to the Crossref.org website.

2. Click on the Search Metadata tab above the search box.

3. Enter the title of the article in the Title, Author, DOI, etc search box. For
example:

"Subjective well-being in times of social change: Congruence of control

strategies and perceived control"

Note: Putting the title in quotation marks tells the site to search for that exact title
and can increase the accuracy of your search.

4. Press the Enter key to run your search.

5. Look through the list of results for your article. The DOI will be listed at the
bottom of the entry.

Example:
10.1080/00207594.2012.744839
 ORCID

 ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID)- is a global, not-for-profit

organization sustained by fees from our member organizations. ORCID is
supported by a dedicated and knowledgeable professional staff.

 It provides a persistent digital identifier (an ORCID iD) that you own and control,
and that distinguishes you from every other researcher. You can connect your iD
with your professional information — affiliations, grants, publications, peer
review, and more.

Benefits:

 Name flexibility - ORCID helps reduce the negative consequences of name

changes so you will no longer be limited to the name you used when you began
your career.
 ORCID links all your research together, while you control the visibility of each
piece of data.

Registration Steps:

1. Visit the link https://info.orcid.org/become-a-member/

2. Fill up needed information for individual or group
3. Verify your email to begin adding information manually to your ORCID record.
