https://scholar.colorado.edu/concern/articles/v405sb71t
Abstract
  • Research happens across borders and languages, but software for managing and citing information isnot designed to consider the linguistic diversity of the world’s resources. Reference managementsoftware (RMS) such as Endnote, Mendeley, and Zotero, among many others help keep track ofinformation sources for research projects. The strength of these programs is based on automaticallypulling metadata from online sources to neatly show the title, author, date of publication, etc. of books,articles , and more. RMS should then automatically output metadata into proper citation andbibliographic formats, saving researchers time. However, when sources are not in English, and especiallywhen they are not written in Roman characters (i.e. the Latin alphabet), RMS have no way to faithfullystore the original vernacular language side by side with transliterations/translations.
