Adding keywords to multiple references in Reference Manager 10
October 17, 2011 12:08 PM Subscribe
Is it possible to bulk edit references in Reference Manager 10 (Network) and, if so, how do I do so?
I am merging about a dozen small Reference Manager databases (which were made for each grant, paper, etc) into one master database. I have realised that I can do this relatively simply by copying the references from each database to the master (I'm not worried about duplicates at this point).
But as I copy the references over, I would like to add a keywords to indicate what the name of the original database was, so that if someone says "I need the McGillicuddy paper that I cited in the 2003 grant application," I can find it (because 2003 grant will be a keyword). This would involve adding a keyword to 200+ references at a time. I have been googling, but I can't seem to find out how to do this, if it's possible.
