Notes de l'éditeur
- Mendeley was named after Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev, who developed periodic table, and Gregor Johann Mendel (described as the father of modern genetics) who demonstrated that inheritance of certain traits in pea plants followed specific patterns. The founders found existing reference management tools too cumbersome, clunky, and expensive — they cost hundreds of Euros, required a lot of manual data entry, and wouldn’t even store the metadata and the PDFs together!
- Mendeley is available for all major OS platforms. Mendeley mission is to help you manage and share your research data as you choose.
- Mendeley account upgrade costs range from $4.99/month – $9.99/month.
- Mendeley supports 6693 citation styles for thousands of journals.
- Mendeley importer supports 53 websites currently. Mendeley can import BibTeX, RIS and EndNote™ XML files so you can easily transfer your library from EndNote™, Papers and Zotero. Mendeley also allows you to “watch” folders. Choose a folder on your computer to “watch” so that when you next add papers to that folder, they are also automatically added to your Mendeley library. You can also drag and drop pdf links directly into your Mendeley Desktop library.EndNote is a commercial reference management software package developed by Thomson Reuters. RefWorks is a web-based commercial reference management software package.
- Organizing your PDFs doesn’t have to be a chore.Mendeley allows you to identify recently added papers, add favorites in a click and store them in multiple folders.
- Journal club discussions can now be extended through Mendeley groups and the sharing of references and opinions.The public groups in Mendeley are great for creating online bibliographies. I use these to create bibliographies on commonly requested areas of research. By joining / following groups you may be able to identify potential collaborators by scanning the member profiles of groups that interest you.
- Access your papers anytime, anywhere from your Desktop, web or mobile. Install Mendeley on an unlimited number of computers for free so you can seamlessly access your library at home, office or on campus. Access your Mendeley library through any internet browser by signing into Mendeley.com. Now your library is even available on computers that don’t have Mendeley installed. Mendeley Web synchronises with Mendeley Desktop and acts as a central server which stores users' library data.
- Mobile apps allow you to access and view your library on the go. Download the Mendeley app for iPad and iPhone from AppStore in itunes. The iPad and iPhone apps are generally more functional than the Android apps because they are developed by the core Mendeley team. Other android clients for Mendeley include; Droideley, Referey. Available at the Android Market / Google Play.Mendeley apps for Android platform are limited in their functionality – most are charitable efforts. Two apps worth mentioning are Droideley and Scholarly.
- It does a great job exactly where I need it, i.e. storing and sorting my papers; searching within my collection; suggesting articles and, of course, making references in the text.
- Mendeleyyoutube channel: www.youtube.com/user/MendeleyResearchMendeley website contains videos, tips and tricks on how to get the most out of Mendeley.Mendeley was purchased by the Elsevier publishing company in 2013.[10] The sale led to debate on scientific networks and in the media interested in Open Access,[11] and upset members of the scientific community[12] who felt that the program's acquisition by publishing giant Elsevier, known for implementing restrictive publishing practices, the high prices of their journals[13] (see The Cost of Knowledge) and publicly supporting the SOPA bill, was antithetical to the open sharing model of Mendeley.[14] David Dobbs, in The New Yorker, described Elsevier's reasons for buying Mendeley as two-fold: to acquire its user data, and to "destroy or coöpt an open-science icon that threatens its business model."[14]
