Bookends is a bibliography software similar to <em>Endnote<\/em> or <em>Bibliographix<\/em> or one of the other bibliography managers out there. However, it is only available for Mac <abbr title=\"Operating System\">OS<\/abbr> X. Probably because of this focus on the Mac market, the interface is much easier to understand than the interface of other bibliography apps that I have used. What&#8217;s even better, it integrates perfectly with the word processor of my choice, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.redlers.com\/mellel.html\">Mellel<\/a>.<br \/>\nNoteable new features of this really well-supported software are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Internet database searching and importing. (That way you can access the Library of Congress and other Libraries \/ Databases, search for references, and then import the references along with additional information like keywords and sometimes even abstracts into your bibliography.)<\/li>\n<li>Smart groups to organize your bibliography. (They work similar to smart playlists in <em>iTunes<\/em> or saved searches in <em>Thunderbird<\/em>.)<\/li>\n<li><abbr title=\"eXtensible Markup Language\">XML<\/abbr> import \/ export.<\/li>\n<li>Bookends Server, which allows me to grant you access to my bibliography!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>After getting acquainted with the new version of Bookeends and solving a few server related problems with Jon from Sonny Software (his response \/ solution time has been below 10 hours \u2013 and that is including time zone related delays), I am proud to present you with probably one of the first <abbr title=\"World Wide Web\">WWW<\/abbr>-wide available Bookends bibliographies in this universe: <a title=\"Lars Frers' searchable bibliography\" href=\"http:\/\/ozean.dyndns.org:2001\/\">search my bibliography<\/a>. Username and password are currently set to: &#8220;freund&#8221; and &#8220;mellon&#8221;. I will keep the server running pretty often. However, I might later change these and mail the current username and password to you by request.<\/p>\n<p>I have also created import filters for Bookends with search capabilities for the following library catalogues in Germany: <abbr title=\"Gemeinsamer BibliotheksVerbund\">GBV<\/abbr>\/<abbr title=\"Gemeinsamer Verbund Katalog\">GVK<\/abbr>, <abbr title=\"Hessisches BibliotheksInformationsSystem\">HeBIS<\/abbr>, and <abbr title=\"Verbund der \u00d6ffentlichen Bibliotheken Berlins\">V\u00d6BB<\/abbr>. I haven&#8217;t tested these thoroughly yet. Additionally, I have created a custom format in German (this is the same format which is applied on the output of my online bibliography, so check it out). You can <a href=\"\/~frers\/blosxom\/data\/bookendscustomfilters.zip\" title=\"4 import filters and 1 custom format in a .zip file\">download<\/a> it.
