Student/Academic Filing Question
caseykoons | Apr 29 2006
Congratulations to you all, especially those of you who responded to my post in the "I'm new" forum. I took your advice and borrowed a copy of GTD from my local library, and I am beginning to try to implement in my life. I've asked a few questions surrounding GTD and the academic lifestyle on this board and I have another one. I'm curious about filing systems. I know that David Allen suggests an A-Z and warns that personal systems are dangerous. The vast majority of the things I save for "reference" are photocopies of journal articles and books related to my field, the History of Religions. I especially curious about the opinions of other graduate students in this matter. Should I have a separate file (by topic or by author) for my academic resources or should I through them in an A-Z general file with my owner's manuals, bank statements and newspaper clippings? Thanks for your help. 24 Comments

I think that EndNote will export (but not import!) BibTeX. I'm not sure of the exact procedure, but it's the same as exporting any other file format (refer, ISI, etc.). I don't think I had to download any third party filters to get it to do that. » POSTED IN:
