ProCite

ProCite is a database management program designed to manage large numbers of bibliographic references.

Users can:

choose from a variety of fill-in-the-blank templates for data entry
create, edit, and store references
retrieve and print formatted bibliographies in a number of pre-defined styles such as APA, ASA, Chicago, Science, etc. (especially useful when submitting articles to journals requiring different formats)
customize templates and style formats
edit records individually or globally
use pre-defined sorting options or create a customized sort

Linking ProCite with a word processor allows users to cite references in reports or papers, and automatically generate a bibliography.

ProCite allows file sharing across the NetWare network. As an example, with proper authorization, a ProCite database owned by one researcher can be accessed by other research staff from their own workstations.

ProCite is available over the CPC network, but must be installed on a researcher's workstation. Please contact Laurie Leadbetter, 962-3081, cpclib@unc.edu, to arrange for installation.
