Die UB der @tu_muenchen hat den Softwarevergleich #Literaturverwaltung aktualisiert. Sehr hilfreich, wenn man sich einen Überblick über die Funktionen von #Zotero, #Citavi, #Mendeley, #EndNote, #JabRef, #Papers und #Paperfile verschaffen möchte: https://mediatum.ub.tum.de/1316333

#JabRef got a new cool new feature, to quickly see where bibliographic information is still incomplete. You might think, JabRef has already an Integrity check? Well, this feature's key focus is primarily on identifying missing required fields and to providing a quick overview.

Recently, the annual JabCon, JabRef's own conference, took place in Zwiesel, Germany.

We took the time to discuss the architecture of #JabRef and work on some important aspects, primarily the improved architecture. In the near future, you will be able to use JabRef's core features from CLI and also use JabRef as a library as part of your tool chain independently of the GUI.
And for the normal users, the cleaner architecture will also result in improved stability.

You are using #LibreOffice but don't want to create or modify a complex citation style for your needs?
Thanks to our #GSOC contributor, you can now choose from the vast amount of #CSL styles in JabRef and use them together with LibreOffice.

Call for feedback: We are currently migrating our search syntax and would like to know how heavy you are using search groups in #JabRef. Please check our forum post https://discourse.jabref.org/t/feedback-on-search-groups-syntax-update/4459 and report back.

Tired of reading through all the papers? Let #AI generate a summary for you, or use it to "chat" with your papers!

Either connect with existing AI providers or use a local #LLM installation.

Check out the new feature, one of our #GSOC contributors is currently working on:

#JabRef got enriched with #LLM features. Check out the blog post at https://blog.jabref.org/2024/08/21/AI-chatting/. A big shoot out to #langchain4j (https://github.com/langchain4j/langchain4j), jvm-openai (https://github.com/StefanBratanov/jvm-openai), and Deep #Java Library (#DJL) (https://github.com/deepjavalibrary/djl). #OpenAI #Mistral #HuggingFace - and the whole #opensource community to be open and supportive! #BibliographyManager #BibTeX #texlatex #academia #AcademicMastodon #science #research

So sad that you can crash/freeze JabRef, one of the most useful tools I have ever seen, with a single click on "citation relation" -- which is actually hard to miss when you want to look at the bibtex source #latex #bibtex #jabref

Any #JabRef #macOS user around? Could you test if the build available at https://builds.jabref.org/pull/11532/merge/ works for you?
