1. What it is

1. Why it might be useful

1. Which tool is right for you
What is social bookmarking?
• A way of making collections of web-based
  resources
• Web-based tools – accessible anywhere
  with an internet connection
• Basic principle of bookmarking pages –
  like ‘favourites’ in a web browser
• But there are several advantages of social
  bookmarking tools
Benefits of social
   bookmarking confined to one
• Web-based tools – not
    computer - interoperability
•   Tagging can be used to help manage and
    structure your collections
•   Sharing and discoverability
•   Group formation
•   Dissemination – improves search ranking
Demonstration
Which tool is right for you
• Will you be bookmarking a lot of journal
  papers? – DOI lookup, e.g.
  Connotea, Zotero

• Are you building a literature review? –
  EndNote-like plugins, e.g. Zotero (or
  Bibtex export)

• Would you like to be able to ‘follow’ others
  updates, like Twitter? E.g. Diigo, Zotero
