Try CiteULike, a free online service

The AIT Library recently informed the AIT community that the free online service, CiteULike, is now available. The Web site is http://www.citeulike.org/ or users can access this site from 'Recommended Site' on the Library homepage (http://www.library.ait.ac.th).

CiteULike is a free service to share, store, and organize the academic papers one is are reading. When one sees a paper of interest on the Web, one can click a button and have it added to a personal library. CiteULike automatically extracts the citation details, so there is no need to type them. It all works from within a Web browser; there is no need to install special software.

Because the library is stored on the server, one can access it from any computer. One can share a library with others and find out who is reading the same papers. In turn, this can help one discover literature that is relevant to one's field. Users can also export their libraries either to BibTeX or Endnote to build it in to their bibliographies.
