SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION
A consortium of academic libraries in New York, serving over 250,000 students, faculty, and staff across more than 30 institutions, is seeking a vendor to provide a cloud-based citation management system. The desired platform will function as an online research management, writing, and bibliographic management tool, enabling users to gather, organize, store, and share research materials. It should offer robust citation generation capabilities directly from library databases, support the creation and formatting of bibliographies and in-text citations within word processing applications such as Microsoft Word, Google Docs, and LaTeX.
The system must be accessible without local installation and seamlessly integrate with browser-based library discovery systems and external databases, providing automatic document recognition and menu-based functionality within major word processing programs. Essential features include manual entry of citations, support for both standardized and custom citation styles, citation metadata editing, and the ability to organize references using folders or tags. The platform should also facilitate collaboration, allowing users to share and co-edit collections and records, and work collectively on research projects.
Mobile compatibility is essential, with responsive design supporting iOS and Android devices to ensure accessibility and usability across a range of devices. The objective is to enhance the user experience, streamline research workflows, and accommodate the diverse information sources and research needs of the academic community.
