It would be good if people would universally use any of the extant tools for citation management. It’s not a problem in CS and associated disciplines but in the humanities and social sciences a shockingly large number of researchers don’t use tools like Zotero and Mendeley. They just keep notes and copy/paste entries in a bibliography.
