What if your entire research bibliography could help you automatically find and download its missing PDFs?

Описание и применение

Автоматизация поиска и скачивания PDF‑файлов по библиографии ускорила работу PhD‑исследователя, позволяя сосредоточиться на чтении.

Задача

I was spending too much time collecting papers instead of reading them.

Результат

The automation reduced manual effort, enabling the researcher to focus on reading and analysis.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Extract bibliographic entries from a reference manager or CSV.
• 2. Query online databases (e.g., CrossRef, arXiv, Google Scholar) for each entry.
• 3. If a PDF link is found, download the file.
• 4. Store the PDF in a local repository and update the bibliography metadata.
