Docear is the complete solution for searching, organizing and creating academic literature such as assignments, theses, books and research papers.   

Software Santa thinks this could be used to run a business OR gather research - so ..... What IS It?

Docear – The Academic Literature Suite
      
Docear (“dog-ear”) is an academic literature suite. It integrates everything you need to search, organize and create academic literature into a single application: digital library with support for pdf documents, reference manager, note taking and with mind maps taking a central role. What’s more, Docear works seamlessly with many existing tools like Mendeley, Microsoft Word, and Foxit Reader. Docear is free and open source, based on Freeplane, funded by the German Federal Ministry of Technology and developed by scientists from around the world, among others from OvGU, and the University of California, Berkeley.


Search
Search in our database containing 3 million academic articles, most of which are in full-text. Download the articles for free. (soon to be available)          

Organize
Organize notes, ideas, references and more with the powerful mind map feature. Your PDFs’ bookmarks, comments and highlighted texts are synced seamlessly with Docear.          

Create
Equipped with the fully featured reference manager, Docear will be an indispensible tool as you work on your assignments, academic papers, thesis or even books!

+ free and open source + use of standard formats (BibTeX, XML, Adobe PDF) + PDF meta data extraction + free backup space on our servers + useable in parallel with or instead of other reference managers (e.g. Mendeley) + no registration required + MS Word integration + full control over your data + free support


Details & Features
Details

Docear is the complete solution for searching, organizing and creating academic literature such as assignments, theses, books and research papers. Just as an office suite bundles the applications essential to the professional environment, Docear integrates the essential applications of a researcher. These include an academic search engine, file manager, PDF reader*, mind mapping and note taking tool, reference manager, paper drafting, and word processor*. While the components are integrated, they are still replaceable so that if you don’t like Docear’s reference manager, you can simply use another one.

Docear has two unique features that no other currently available tools offer. Firstly, Docear lets you import PDF annotations (including bookmarks,  comments and highlighted text). This allows a document’s most important information can be easily organized. If more information is required than the bookmark or comment itself provides, Docear can open the PDF on the page the bookmarks points to. Secondly, all information is structured in a mind map which we believe to be much more effective and efficient than a simple list or social tags.

Docear is programmed in Java 6 and runs on all major operating systems for which Java 6 is available for: Windows (7, Vista, XP, 2000, etc.), Linux, and Mac Os (Leopard 10.5 and later)
