ReadCube Papers Essentials - 1 Year Account

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 paid plan of the service, active on a 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 is account access to ReadCube Papers Essentials for 1 year: you receive the login details by email and use the service 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.
