I'm looking for software to use in creating a bibliograpy database. Important features: -inclusion of key words for cross referencing. -ability to format output in a variety of reference styles (APA, etc.). -ability to import these sub-sets of references into Wordperfect documents. -room for an ever expanding number of entries. A system which can be set up to be relatively user friendly would be a plus but is not essential. Please e-mail suggestions. Thanks in advance. EEM103@PSUVM Betsy - Penn State University

You might try calling Niles & Associates at +1 415 655 6666 and ask if they
have got their EndNote and EndLink packages running on IBM stuff yet. When
I first looked at it it was available only for the MacIntosh, but an IBM
version was rumored to be available soon. It appears to do most of what you
want.

There is a package called BIB that's sold as a bibliography manager for anthropologists -- it's got built-in formats for major anthropology journals, but those are fairly standard formats. It's a LOT cheaper ($50, $40 for students) than the better known programs like Pro-Cite and Notebook. When you browse through your database it displays references in a form that looks like notecards. >Important features: -inclusion of key words for cross referencing.

BIB can format output files for Wordperfect, Wordstar, Sprint, NotaBene, others. It doesn't work very well with MS-Word, but you can correct the problem with a Word macro. > -room for an ever expanding number of entries.
