Introduction to Tags
Tags are IvySCI’s core organization tool, offering flexible, multi-dimensional categorization for literature. Unlike rigid folder structures (which work for small datasets), tags allow you to label documents by topic, status, methodology, or any custom criteria—making retrieval faster and workflows more adaptive.
Key Benefits:
- Multi-Label Efficiency
- Dynamic Updates
- Collaborative Workflows
Therefore, we have always encouraged users to develop the habit of managing documents with tags.
How to Use Tags:
After importing documents, we can add tags to them, allowing for more detailed management within the project. There are many ways to categorize tags, for example, we can add tags like "unread/reading/finished reading" or use subcategories of a topic as tags.
Once tags are set, we can find documents through the automatic categorization of tags.
