The 2nd most popular educational tool on Mac OS X
Introducing Papers... Do you have dozens of PDF files from your favorite scientific articles scattered on your harddrive? Do you also try to desperately organize them by renaming and archiving them in folders? But like the piles of printed articles on your desk, you can't keep up with all the new papers you download, and despite all your efforts it has become impossible to find that one article. Finally that all belongs to the past. We've been there, trust us, we know. That's why we wrote Papers, our latest application exclusively for the Mac. Papers will revolutionize the way you deal with scientific papers. Search for papers using PubMed, directly retrieve and archive PDFs, and read and study them all from within Papers, your personal library of Science.… More Edit

Really good software! Writing my whole thesis on my mac using Papers for search and organizing my articles. Two issues that keeps this from being the ultimate scientific program: good marker tools plus easier and more reliable performance of the "Authentication URL" and "Liberay proxy".
I absolutely loved this application the first time I used it and bought it right away. it is great to organize and search scientific literature. However it is not a citation manager app, and the X2 version of Endnote now allows direct pdf download and organization. Although less ellegantly, but still, it's better not to duplicate the database. Very sorry, but I'll have to use Endnote for now :(
Papers is an application to collect and organise scientific articles. It has helped me to organise over 2500 PDFs into folders, to collect the relevant data required for EndNote (authors, journal info, etc) and has helped streamline my research and writing. Highly recommended for anyone working in a scientific field who has more than 10 PDFs sitting in a folder!
It is an excellent application as it is now, although some nice features are missing at present (version 1.8.6), including supplementary data handling and general handling of items other than journal articles.
Bought it immediately when it was released. Hardly used now. I can't figure out how it works. I'm probably doing something wrong but I can't get a workflow going. I keep my PDFs organised in folders or Yojimbo.
Really neat application for grabbing papers
