WueResearch Goes Live

The University of Würzburg now has its own system for collecting, organising, sharing and using publications: WueResearch. The system is live and ready for use. Sift through and collect academic literature to keep track of relevant publications in their field of research: This is what researchers do every day. Knowledge management tools help them not to lose track. With the software application WueResearch, Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg (JMU) now has its own system for the collection, organisation, sharing and use of publications. At the same time, the system supports the JMU at the institutional level in reporting and benchmarking. WueResearch has been live and ready for use by JMU researchers since August 2022. Collecting and organising publications . Entering publications into a database can be tedious and time consuming. WueResearch therefore offers users a variety of quick and easy ways to add publications to their user profiles - for example automatically via the DOI or ISBN of a publication, by importing EndNote, BibTeX or RIS snippets or by synchronising their profiles with an existing BibSonomy or ORCiD account. In addition, WueResearch offers a browser add-on through which users can add publications directly to their profiles with just a few clicks while surfing the internet. With the help of user-definable keywords, so-called tags, the collected publications can then be organised clearly and efficiently, for example by topic or project. This makes it easy to find the relevant literature later. In addition, documents can be linked to the saved publications, for example the full texts of the publications or other supporting sources.
