Research is increasingly about collaboration. Whether you’re working as part of a research lab, co-authoring a paper, or sharing papers with collaborators, it should be easy to move your work where it’s needed.
There are five ways to share your work from ResearchRabbit. Pick the one that fits what you need:
I want to… | Use |
Share a collection with anyone, no invite needed | |
Invite specific people to view or edit a collection | |
Send papers to Zotero, EndNote or Mendeley | |
Share the reference for one paper | |
Show a map in a paper, slide or email |
Share a collection with a public link
A public link lets anyone you send it to view your collection, without being able to change it.
Open the collection in your Library and click Edit Collection.
Choose Share with Public Link.
Copy the link and send it to anyone you like.
Collaborate on a shared collection
Invite people to work on a collection with you, such as your lab, co-authors or supervisor.
Open the collection in your Library and click Edit Collection.
Choose Invite Collaborators and add their email addresses.
Choose whether each person is an Editor, who can add and change papers, or a Viewer, who can only look.
You can also update your Collaborators access, or check to see if they have accepted your invitation, in Edit Collection.
Anyone you share with can view your notes and if there are subcollections in a collection these will also be shared.
It’s really easy to move or copy articles (one by one or in bulk) between collections, so you might like to create unshared private collections and move articles across to your shared collection when you are ready. Learn more about organizing your articles with collections →
Export papers
To use your papers in Zotero, EndNote, Mendeley or another reference manager, export them as BibTeX, RIS or CSV from your Library. See How to export your papers.
Copy a citation
To share the reference for a single paper, open it, click the ⋮ menu, choose Cite and pick your style. See How to cite papers in ResearchRabbit.
Share an image of your map
A screenshot is the quickest way to show your map in a paper, slide or email. Press Shift + Command + 4 on a Mac, or Windows key + Shift + S on Windows. For tips on using maps in published work, and how to credit ResearchRabbit, see Using ResearchRabbit maps in your published work.
Common questions
Can collaborators add papers to my collection?
Yes, if you invite them as an Editor. Viewers can see the collection but can’t change it.
Can people I share with see my notes?
Yes. Anyone you share a collection with can see your notes, and any sub-collections inside it.
Do I need ResearchRabbit+ to share?
No, you can share collections on the free plan.
