Uses for Reference Web Poster®
Reference Web Poster® is a perfect tool for sharing personal reference collections on the Internet with colleagues, students or others.  References for grant submissions, collaborative projects, patent applications, reading lists, or other unique compilations can be shared with colleagues worldwide.  For example, a researcher in England can post an EndNote® database for his colleagues in the United States and Asia to search. These colleagues, in turn, can download selected references into their own reference managers for use in their research and writing -- even if they all use different bibliography managers.
