ReadCube Papers Standard - 1 Year Upgrade

ReadCube Papers is the reference manager and PDF reader developed by ReadCube, a Digital Science company: it gathers articles, books and PDFs in a single personal library, completes their bibliographic data automatically and keeps everything synchronised between computer, browser and mobile devices. It is intended for students, PhD candidates, researchers and clinicians who read a lot of scientific literature and need to find, annotate and cite their sources quickly while writing papers, theses or grant proposals. The purchase is a subscription to the paid plan of the service, linked to your ReadCube account: once it is active, the same account unlocks the desktop apps for Windows and macOS, the web app and the mobile apps.

This product activates ReadCube Papers Standard for 1 year on your own account (a free account with the service is enough, unless the details say otherwise): after payment we apply the subscription to the account you indicate, usable for 1 user (Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and web browser).

A typical session starts with a search from inside the app or a click on the browser extension while reading a journal website: the article and its PDF land in the library with complete metadata, you read and highlight it in the built-in viewer and, when it is time to write, SmartCite inserts the citation and the bibliography directly in Microsoft Word or Google Docs.

Key Features:

• Library and automatic metadata: Imported PDFs are matched against publisher databases, so title, authors, journal, year and DOI are filled in automatically; lists, tags and smart lists keep even large collections in order.
• Enhanced PDF reader: Highlights, notes and drawings are saved together with the article; the reader shows references, related articles and figures without leaving the document.
• Search and recommendations: Search PubMed, Google Scholar and other sources from inside the app, get suggestions based on what is already in your library and follow new publications on your topics.
• SmartCite: The citation add-in for Microsoft Word and Google Docs inserts in-text citations and generates the bibliography in thousands of citation styles, including APA, MLA, Chicago and journal formats.
• Sync and shared libraries: The library, PDFs and annotations are stored in the cloud and kept in sync across desktop, web and mobile apps; shared libraries let you collect and discuss papers with colleagues.
