Due to my line of work, I find myself having to use both these services frequently, despite avoiding google as much as I can. I see a lot of alternatives out there for internet searching, but when it comes to specific fields, alternatives tend to be scarce.
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
settingspreferences, 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.
