Quick start tutorial

Let's start with a quick overview of how to use Biblioscape. The best way to do this would be carrying out a research project using Biblioscape, and submitting a paper in the end. The idea here was to give an example of a complete workflow from start to finish. It will show you how Biblioscape can be used to collect references, take notes, organize information, and format papers in a typical research paper writing project. Biblioscape is a versatile program; there are many ways it can be used to organize research information. The quick start tutorial will show you how one researcher uses Biblioscape for a small and simple project. The workflow that is described in this tutorial will provide a clear insight into what Biblioscape does, how it can be used to help speed up research, how best to organize your research information, and how it can save you time when generating citations and a bibliography.

In the following tutorial, we will first create a new Biblioscape database. We will use the paper "Apes and Language: A Review of the Literature" (Source: Diana Hacker, Boston, Bedford/St. Martin's, 2004) as an example. We will go through different stages of a research project from collecting references, taking notes and building outline, to the final formatting.
