I use JabRef for both finding research papers and generating bibliographies. It's phenomenal and fully open source. Definitely worth checking out, I'm not even sure what I'd do without it these days!
I tried it, but didn't find a way to search for articles. it seems closer to zotero than scholar. Am I missing something?
In the top left there should be a search option. In ~~settings~~ preferences, be sure it's set up to search all sources. I get tons of articles when putting in pretty specific topics.
Edit: It's in the preferences under the file tab. Here's screenshots of my home screen, plus the preferences I use for it to search papers.
@shreddy_scientist @nossaquesapao I shared the academic Internet archive recently, which is pretty good. A JabRef dev commented on adding it to the JabRef search resources. I need to start using JabRef to help begin the move away from Google scholar but that's very difficult to do as an academic.
Thank you very much!
