WHAT DO I DO WITH ALL THE ARTICLES I FIND? (AND STORAGE...)

This is THE question I constantly grapple with. I, like many of my colleagues, have so many folders called something along the lines of "NEED TO READ," and still do.

​But to help redo the wealth of articles I keep coming across, this is the new process I'm trying out:
  1. ​I've created large buckets of research (recognizing that articles can definitely count across multiple groupings.) Some of them include "Activism" "Pedagogy" "Methods" (methods is further grouped out). 
  2. When I come across an article, I'll put it in one of the big buckets
  3. Once I read it, I rename it with the author(s), year, and brief key words
By doing this, I'm trying to distinguish articles I've read, compared to ones I haven't read. I also recognize that there are now TONS of ways to do this through different platforms (e.g. Zotero, Mendeley, Endnotes, Refworks) that help manage both your articles and​ your citations. Here's an article from U Chicago that discusses some of the differences between. (LINK). 

For storage, I link my files with a cloud platform (e.g. Dropbox, Box, GoogleDrive) in case I lose my computer or it putters out (which is around the corner), I don't want to lose all these articles. Also, by doing cloud sharing, I can share folders with friends which has also been wonderful for collaboration.

    Writing is a craft. To sharpen mine, I read a fair amount of books, articles, excerpts, and more. At least for the books, here are some I've enjoyed. 

    And if you're looking to buy a book, support local bookstores, and/or buy via Bookshop.

    And if you want to support the content I create on this site, you can "buy me a cup of coffee" through the button. Thank you~
