Abstract
Three bibliographic database management packages for the Apple Macintosh—Pro-Cite, EndNote and Reference Manager—are reviewed. They all allow management of literature reference databases and facilitate to varying degrees the production of stand-alone bibliographies and the writing of academic papers with in-text citations and reference lists. Their strength lies in their ability to produce papers with intext citations and correctly formatted reference lists from a word processor or ASCII file, and from the fact that the in-text and reference formats may be altered quickly and easily. EndNote is the easiest package to use and is appropriate for users who chiefly want to simplify the process of producing papers. Pro-Cite is an extremely comprehensive program, which although comparatively weak in the aforementioned area has extensive facilities for creating bibliographies. Reference Manager, although a competent program, is unacceptable in its present incarnation for use on the Macintosh due to the limitations of its interface.
