Sciwheel Is Now Lean Library Workspace
Sciwheel has been rebranded as Lean Library Workspace (LLW). If you are a current Sciwheel user, the largest differences you may notice are the color scheme and branding. The domain is now workspace.leanlibrary.com, but redirects are in place so that none of your existing links or bookmarks will break.
If you currently use the Sciwheel browser extension, you will need to download the Lean Library browser extension before August 31st. However, please note that a browser extension for Firefox is not currently available. LLW recommends that Firefox users continue to use the Sciwheel extension until the end of August.
LLW users should also note that there may be additional changes to the software in the future, as Sage purchased it in 2022.
New Zotero App for Android
If you already know and love Zotero, the free open-source citation manager, then you may also be interested in Zotero’s mobile apps. An app for iOS has existed since 2022, but they finally also released an Android app this summer! Both the iOS and Android apps are great for adding articles to your library and reading PDFs on the go. If you have a free online account with Zotero and sync your desktop library to it, you are ready to start using the app on an iPhone, iPad, or Android device. Our Citation Managers guide has instructions for getting started with either version of the app.
Ask a Librarian if you have any questions about citation managers.
