I am still refining my literature organizational system, but basically it involves 3 steps:
* '''search''' (find literature from google, existing references, etc; get fulltext)
* '''triage''' (select signal from noise; skim pdfs in extended collection for useful/relevant papers)
* '''review''' (annotate & highlight selected papers and incorporate into the [[Diagnostic Kits#Bibliography|Diagnostic Kits Bibliography]]
 
In particular, I am still looking for the perfect solution for organizing the triage step.  I've tried:
* [http://www.zotero.org/100ideas/items Zotero]
* [http://www.mendeley.com/collections/33560/ICP-Diagnostics-Pipeline/ Mendeley]
* [http://mekentosj.com/papers/ Papers]. 
I like using papers the most overall, I like how effortless grabbing citations is with Zotero, and I like how Mendeley can synchronize PDFs between multiple computers and collaborators. Other Notes:
 
* I'm afraid we're making future work for ourselves by not being mindful of collecting metadata when we list a citation in our wiki bibliographies, which are currently plaintext.  I have a vision of us finishing the project and generating a [http://simile.mit.edu/wiki/Citeline_User%27s_Guide SIMILE citeline] eventually. Alas.
* Zotero can convert references into the mediawiki citation format by drag and drop, but the family of cite templates must be installed in mediawiki; see [http://evernote.com/pub/macowell/icp#Note/514ec54a-ab5c-4fa8-a638-58af29869429 my notes on how to install the cite templates].
