I copy individual citations of the papers to the different topic subfolders. Besides that I have a folder "topics" with different topics in subfolders. I have a folder with all my texts as subfolders where I'm saving indiviual citations. The main purpose of Scrivener is to write novels or papers but I found it to be very helpful for my needs in knowledge management. I'm currently using Scrivener for citation and knowledge management. This is exactly what I was looking for for a long time. Here is an academic workflow by Kerry Magruder using Sente, DevonThink, Scrivener, and Pages (note: this is an archived web page, the original has disappeared from the net) You can also get a pdf of his book Organizing Creativity. Wessel also discusses a number of other software tools for academic use (e.g., Sente, DevonThink.) and a variety of approaches to academic work. See his very interesting approach using Circus Ponies Notebook for Academic Writing at I currently have just under 2000 references in Sente, a large proportion including the pdf (mostly downloaded and attached to a reference as I mine the reference from one of the academic databases-Sente is quite smart about importing and attaching these).Īn interesting blog that hits on this and other useful topics on thesis writing, publication, etc is Organizing Creativity by Daniel Wessel. ![]()
