@OK_Maps @paperpile 1. Start with a search term
Think of OKMaps as a better google for your very first step of lit research.
Simply type in a topic and see relevant papers sorted in groups.
Refine your results by date if you are looking for a specific period, or newest papers.

@OK_Maps @paperpile 2. See results
OKMaps will find a number of most relevant papers, arranged by category.
Each bubble contains papers of a single category.
On the right side you can refine your search textually or by date.

@OK_Maps @paperpile 3. Zooming into a category
Click on one of the bubbles to reveal the papers it is made up of.
All these papers will be semantically related and you might end up adding all of them to your initial review.
Click on the single papers, to reveal an abstract.

@OK_Maps @paperpile 4. Collect relevant papers
My favourite way to collect papers is @paperpile.
It's incredibly well integrated into my browser (Chrome) and smart.
Right Click on the DOI Link and select "Add to Paperpile".

@OK_Maps @paperpile 5. Paperpile UI
If you have ever used a Reference Manager, you will feel right at home.
Organise your references by label or folder.
It is really snappy, since I can just drag the labels from the left onto the paper.

@OK_Maps @paperpile Never heard of @paperpile?
It's a neat tool to collect academic papers, like Zotero or Mendeley.
Google "Paperpile Chrome Extension" to add the extension.
(Other browsers are supported as well.)
Price: 3$/month for academics + 30 day free trial

@OK_Maps @paperpile 6. Seed Collection
This initial collection is a "seed" for further digging.

Follow @Artifexx if you don't want to miss it.
This is how I take notes while reading:
