Title

Procite 4: a look at the latest release in bibliographic management software

Source

Library software review. 17(1998) no.1, S.4-13

Year

1998

Abstract

On Nov 26, 1997, Research Information Systems released its newest version of the ProCite bibliographic management software. The most notable change to the programme is the retooling for compatibility with Windows 95 and NT. In addition to the Windows 95 upgrade, ProCite added 2 new workforms. These forms allow users to capture information about Web pages and e-mail messages. This latest release builds on the Cite While You Write feature that allows users to link citations in a single manuscript to records in multiple databases. The program simplifies the generation of bibliographies and endnotes while allowing users to create bibliographic databases using 28 distinct workforms. Workforms cover a wide range of materials to patents. While there are a few idiosyncrasies users should be aware of, this product is a solid addition to the librarian's toolkit and should be considered by those libraries that have a need for a small but powerful programme to catalogue resources and create bibliographies
