Carlsbad,
CA, USA – April 24, 1998 –
Research Information Systems (RIS) today began shipping Reference Web
Poster, a new collaborative tool for sharing bibliographic references
with colleagues on the Internet. With Reference Web Poster you can post
databases from ProCite, Reference Manager, and EndNote on the Web. Colleagues
with a browser can search these databases and import references into their
own reference managers – ProCite, Reference Manager, and EndNote.
Reference Web Poster is available from RIS at an introductory price of
$149.95.
Post
Bibliographic Databases to the Web with Reference Web Poster
Build
your personal reference collection in ProCite, Reference Manager and EndNote
(each sold separately). Post your Reference Manager, ProCite and EndNote
databases on the Web to share with colleagues around the world or on your
Intranet. You can describe the contents of posted databases and specify
the display format for bibliographic references, including the output
style and sort order. Reference Web Poster is easy to use – there's
no programming or database conversion required.
Colleagues
Search and Export References into Their Bibliographic Software
Anyone
with a Web browser can access a Reference Web Poster site. Colleagues
can search any combination of ProCite, Reference Manager and EndNote databases
– simultaneously. They can import references into a ProCite or Reference
Manager database in one step and into EndNote or other reference managers
from a text file.
"Bibliographic
software discussion lists daily request tools for posting and accessing
reference data on the Web," said David Kochalko, president and CEO
of RIS. "Reference Web Poster is a perfect tool for sharing personal
reference collections on the Internet with colleagues or students. For
example, a researcher in England can post an EndNote database for his
or her colleagues in the United States and Asia to search. These colleagues,
in turn, can download selected references into their own reference managers
for use in their research and writing – even if they all use different
bibliography managers."
