I find the reading experience nicer than Sente which currently only shows one page at a time. READING/ANNOTATING: Sente is pretty good for annotation, and I’m sure it will get better, but my favorite way to read PDFs right now is with iAnnotate for the iPad. And while all of these options have the ability to share with others, I find the easiest way to share files online is with Google Docs so I also use that, especially for teaching.

I have some huge PDF files which aren’t handled well by either app so I also depend on Dropbox to sync those files across computers. (See my review of the free version.) Unfortunately, Sente and Evernote still aren’t enough.

The iPad version of Sente pro finally came out and it is amazing. I need to be able to pull out citations and insert them in my bibliography, etc. But for academic texts I need structured metadata. It also can sync between your computer and mobile apps. STORAGE: Once you’ve scanned something or downloaded it from the web, what do you do with it? Personally I am a big fan of Evernote which will do OCR on your (English) image and PDF files and which lets you do fulltext search on your entire library. If you have a smartphone with a good camera you can also simply take a snapshot and use software like JotNot to convert those photos to something resembling a scanned document. My school has a fancy photocopy machine which can chew up an article and spit out a nice small PDF file, but if you don’t have access to that you can get yourself a Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 (or S1500M for the Mac) which can do the same thing. INPUT: If you aren’t starting with a digital document from JSTOR, you need to scan your paper. What’s amazing is that all of a sudden there are hundreds of choices depending on your own personal workflow, system preferences, etc. 2010 is the year that going paperless became truly possible, and not just for those who dream of the future-for everyone. But I’m not the kind of person to let reality get in the way when I know something is possible, even if that possibility is just over the horizon. It was a slow, noisy, hulk of a machine which would jam half the time. I’ve been trying to go paperless since graduate school, when I bought my first sheet-feed scanner.
