The BibWorm Project

Welcome to the home of the BibWorm project. On these pages you will find information on our unique, integrated set of bibliographical and research management applications. While this site is still under construction, we would be grateful if you could complete our survey as your answers will help us develop the kind of software you need.

The goal of the BibWorm project is the development of a set of applications which

• provide effective means for managing bibliographical data, including lectures, interviews, audiovisual media, software, etc.
• increase productivity and improve information flow by
  • automating, or at least facilitating, common tasks wherever possible (e.g. the creation of course reading lists or citations and bibliographies for papers)
  • providing easy and, where possible, automated access to further information stored on users' computers (e.g. notes, paper drafts) or anywhere on the internet or intranets (e.g. information retrieved from online library catalogues, contact details, relevant websites)
• can be easily customized and expanded according to the needs of a specific environment. For this reason BibWorm applications
  • will be modular
  • provide an extensive API
