zotero & the Internet Archive

It’s enough to make my poor little head spin…This is wonderful, and my guess is that a huge percentage of scholars will ignore the chance to dive in and participate.

(I have to say that I am torn between Zotero and Refworks, because I can use Refworks from any computer that is linked to the web and Zotero files rest on the machine, but Zotero is open source and Refworks is licensed so one must be affiliated with an institution to use it.)

I’m not even sure why I find this so fascinating, as I haven’t written a scholarly paper in decades.

The whole thing…Open Content, tagging, creating bibliographies from worldcat or amazon searches, LibraryThing for goddess’ sake…it’s amazing.
