Papers (software)

Papers is reference management software for Mac OS X and Windows, used to manage bibliographies and references when writing essays and articles. It is primarily used to organize references and maintain a library of PDF documents, and also provides a uniform interface for document repository searches, metadata editing, full screen reading and a variety of ways to import and export documents.

With the release of Papers2 in March 2011, Papers now also offers full endnote-style reference citation features. Papers2 allows for users to access their library and insert citations across many different applications, whether in documents, presentations, or in web browsers. Papers offers a familiar user interface and a number of features for collecting, curating, merging and linking articles.
