[Taxacom] Obituaries and bibliographies of taxonomists on Mendeley

[Roderic Page]

I've started a "group" on Mendeley for obituaries and bibliographies  
of taxonomists. For those of you who haven't come across Mendeley,  
it's a free tool for managing bibliographies both on your desktop  
(rather like EndNote), and on the web, where you can collaboratively  
create lists of publications. For more details see http://www.mendeley.com/faq/

I've created the group http://www.mendeley.com/groups/627101/obituaries-and-bibliographies-of-taxonomists/ 
  primarily to collect lists of authors' publications, which are very  
useful for locating articles in the Biodiversity Heritage Library.  
Obituaries can also be useful when editing Wikipedia pages about  
taxonomists, and in distinguishing between authors with the same  
initials or names.

The group is very small at present, but I hope to add to it as I come  
across relevant articles.

If you use Mendeley to manage your references you can join this group  
and easily add articles to this group (either by dragging and dropping  
in the desktop version, or doing it online). If anybody has  
suggestions of articles to add, but doesn't use Mendeley, please get  
in touch and I can add them.

TAXACOM members may also be interested in the growing collection of  
complete(ish) bibliographies for individual journals that I'm making  
available at http://www.mendeley.com/groups/

Regards

Rod
