What is BrowZine?

BrowZine: Academic Journals in a Beautiful, Browseable Format

 BrowZine is an app for Apple or Android smart phones and devices that helps you flip through the scholarly e-journals available through Purdue University Libraries. Browzine has sorted Purdue's e-journals into broad subjects and then into narrower disciplines. You can save and organize your most-used e-journals on virtual bookshelves saved to your account. The result is an easy and familiar way to browse through, read, and monitor scholarly e-journals across disciplines.

Citation Management

Collecting and organizing relevant literature is an important step in the process of scholarly publication. There are many ways to collect the results of literature searching, ranging from piles of paper (not recommended!) to organizing everything electronically.  Within that range, you can find or craft a solution that works well for you.

Purdue Libraries provides support for several citation managers, including EndNote (desktop, $) and EndNote Basic (web-based, free). See the resources below for more information.
