| FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Carlsbad,
CA, USA - February 20, 2002 - ISI ResearchSoft announces the release of Reference
Manager 10 Network Version, a major upgrade that now offers the same dynamic features as
the single user version—an enhanced integration with Microsoft® Word®, new ways to
store links to Web-based research, and direct access to ISI Web of Science®. Unique to
this network version are links from Reference Manager to two powerful new research tools
increasingly found on users’ desktops—data visualization software and the
OpenURL standard.
These enhancements, coupled with Reference Manager’s already
robust research tools and refined searching and sorting capabilities, make it the ideal
solution for corporate, government and academic researchers, librarians, and students who
need to find, import, manage and perfectly format reference data for professional
journals, grants, dissertations, CVs, research papers as well as other types of
publications.
“As the Web becomes increasingly important in the day-to-day life
of the researcher, our users are looking to extend the power of bibliographic
software,” said David Kochalko, President of ISI ResearchSoft. “With these new
links to data visualization software and the implementation of the OpenURL standard, our
network customers have access to the latest technologies, allowing them to maximize the
potential of their research workgroups,” Kochalko continued.
Cite While You Write with Instant
Formatting in Microsoft Word
The enhanced Cite While You Write feature allows for greater efficiency in the writing and
research process. Reference Manager now instantly formats a finished bibliography as users
cite references in the document. Sharing documents for collaborative writing has never
been easier than with Reference Manager’s new traveling library. Documents contain
complete reference data for all citations. Wherever the document goes, the references
travel with it—ready for colleagues to add, delete and reformat citations in the same
document.
New Fields for Storing Links to Web Pages
and Files
Reference Manager 10 Network Version now has four dedicated fields in each reference for
storing links to full-text documents, PDF files, image files and more. The linked
information can be stored on the Internet or on any accessible hard drive or network
server for quick retrieval and review. Additional improvements include expanded linkages
to the ISI Web of KnowledgeSM platform and over 150 new content files,
including output styles, import filters and connection files, making it easier to connect
to and import data from a wide variety of online sources.
OmniVizTM and SFX—Two New
Powerful Research Tools
Users of the network version are now able to access their OmniViz software directly
through the Reference Manager interface. OmniViz, the only available data visualization
program that can analyze both textual and numeric information in the same framework,
provides users with a visual interpretation of their reference data, allowing for easy
recognition of relevant trends and patterns within this data. OmniViz can also send
references back to Reference Manager databases.
The Reference Manager 10 network version supports the OpenURL standard.
With an installed SFX server, users will have access to a host of related, virtual links
that allow them to easily navigate between independently supported online databases at the
document level. Using SFX ensures that users’ links are always up-to-date.

Reference Manager 10 Network Version is designed for Windows 98/ME/XP and Windows
NT4/2000. The list price of Reference Manager Network Version is $1,395.95 USD. Special
