As y’all know I have been looking at Nota Bene as a possible bibliographic program. I like ndxCards as a writing program/biblio program.

But in the last couple of days I have been taking a serious look at Biblioscape http://www.biblioscape.com/ . I wonder if anyone here has experience with it?

I like Biblioscape b/c it has good note capability, and a system of links that can connect references, notes, tasks (it has a task manager in the professional version, and local files. It also has a web browser.

The notes are shown in a tree or table view, the latter can be sorted according to metadata.

There’s a built in word processor that seems pretty full featured.

References can be searched by any word, or user-set keywords.

Also, references can be arranged in folders, providing a visiible structure/organization.

Professional version carries a hefty $299, which would put a crimp (pun intended) in my budget. But if Biblioscape does what it is supposed to, perhaps it is worth it. I could still used ndxCards for writing pieces of an article, and rearranging them.

Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

Daly
