We can also search library catalogs of many universities or the Library of congress from within these utilities. Once you find the book that you’re looking for, just click and import it. Once references are in place, and complete - just click your way to creating citations in your research paper. I have been creating posts on related topics including one comparing Google Scholar with other academic search engines, using Google scholar with Refworks, and other posts. You can find these under the tag information management for graduate students. These posts contain tips and tricks for collecting and managing references, among other things.
