WIDIEM Introduces New Case Studies Section

Aug. 20, 2015 - PRLog -- Widiem is pleased to announce that it has launched its new Case Studies section. The purpose of the case studies is to provide support for two of Widiem's strongest claims – that it substantially reduces the time it takes to add records to a reference list, and that it delivers unprecedented levels of accuracy and compliance with style rules.

Each case study presents the time it took to recreate the reference list of an existing journal article. Articles were chosen from diverse disciplines that adhere to various reference styles. Using a regular Widiem account, the reference list of each article was reproduced from scratch. The Case Studies section will be updated regularly, and can be viewed here (http://www.widiem.com/lists/case_studies.php).

"Scholars and students in today's academic environment are expected to be highly productive. While there is a large selection of reference managers to choose from, our experience as academic researchers is that instead of making our lives easier, in large part these tools make our lives harder," said CEO of Widiem, Alex Duke.

"That is why we set out to deliver an online citation tool that would allow even the most inexperienced student to create reference lists that adhere to rigorous publication standards, in almost no time, and without any prior training – while remaining competitively priced. Widiem allows scholars and students to create lists for their seminar paper, thesis, dissertation, or journal article, without becoming experts in reference styles and formatting."

Widiem offers the following features:

- Reference manager: Widiem's rapid and no-hassle reference manager is intuitive – requiring no manuals or workshops, and web-based – requiring no installation.

- Research tool: Widiem's search engine yields results that are extensively cross-referenced, thus reducing the number of false positives.

- Self-promotion platform: Widiem provides scholars with a public platform for their publication list, and allows them to control the information they display on their scholar page.
