Please advise the program for WinOS as a file manager that allows to create and store groups of downloaded papers and other references, so that it was possible to group them on multiple labels (tags)? Eg, sort by the author, and other categories: theoretical works, experimental, a methods like A, a methods like B... . The folder tree structure allows you to group only by one parameter. But ideally, I would like to do more than 10 categories.
I think, any databases allows to do that, but maybe exist simple solutions specialized for researchers?
I see there are a large variety of solutions
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_reference_management_software
first of all, I need:
- quick and easy access to the already downloaded papers that are in folders on my PC (multiple PC?)
- grouping and sorting them by label
- the ability to quickly export citations to bibTEX
- convenient access to citations for each paper in Google-scholar
What programs do you use?
Hi Nikolay,
maybe www.mendeley.com would be something for you. I am using it myself and it helps organizing the papers. However, it does not track any citations.
Best wishes,

Hi Nikolay,
Mendeley is good but there are other options too, take a look at this guide we created for our students and staff, this might help you decide which product is right for you. http://otago.libguides.com/c.php?g=171538&p=1131102

Mendeley is nice and useful, but I found EndNote much more powerful and handy. I stopped using Mendeley because EndNote covers all I need. I'd recommend it.
Mendeley is a great tool for management of documents, just give it a try!
I'm tested different RMS (Citavi, Papers, EndNote, CiteULike, Zotero...), but finally I chose Mendeley.

Dear Nikolay,
You can use any Reference Manager. Mendeley is very popular, but sometimes you have access to other reference manager from your institution and it also may serve you well. In regards to storage of downloaded papers, reference managers have a limited storage space that you can use free of charge. If you need more space, you should pay.
