Abstract
We report on the development of a powerful and task-oriented tool for the management of research publications. The work was motivated by a survey showing that researchers still rely heavily on basic tools such as text editors for managing bibliographic data. We present the approach as well as the resulting tool, PubLight, and compare the features of this tool with existing reference management systems.
