Academic Research Tool and PDF Reference Manager: ReadCube | Latest Social Media News | Scoop.it

Robin Good: Readcube is a free download software (PC and Mac) which allows you to automatically update, organize, annotate, index and search-through your collection of PDF documents.

 

This is a great tool for anyone doing serious research in any field, whether inside or outside the official academic and scientific sectors.
