Subject: Notes and Bibliography Data
I don't have an answer for T.R. Vicker about WP Citation, but I do have a
further question about bibliographic software. I am not terribly interested in
a package which can take the citation data and format it 120 different ways.
What I would prefer is a package which once the citation to the work is
entered would then allow me to enter multiple 'screens' of citations. To
describe it another way I should be able to enter the bibliographic data once
and then enter notes, quotations, etc. each with its own page reference and
have each related to the bibliographic record. I don't want to have to enter
the bibliographic data for each citation and I want a separate record for each
citation (or note or thought I have about the work). This way I can export
individual citations to my word processor in any order I choose.
If each citation could be keyword indexed that would be even better. I have
been attempting to create such a package, but am too slow at the process and
wonder what is now available on the market. Thanks for any and all hints.
