3. Collaborate easily with other researchers online.
Connect with colleagues and securely share your
papers, notes and annotations.
Discover papers, people and public groups.
Share bibliographies with your colleagues through a
private group.
THE PROMISE
5. There are three types of groups:
Private groups - These private groups are visible only to
members, who can share papers and notes.
Invite-only groups - These groups are visible to the public, but
each has an owner who administers the group.
Open groups - Anyone can join and contribute to these groups.
They’ll be a great way to build community-driven collections of
literature around a subject.
