I'm using Pro-Cite, a bibliographic database, to reference reprints of scientific articles. I list in it author names, publications, dates, etc, and also keep notes on a reprint after reading it. When I go to scientific meetings, I copy any relevant files to my Palmtop. For example, I have one database dedicated to ethanol research. If I'm going to a meeting on that topic, I copy that database into the 200- LX's Flashcard, and can then look up information on the researchers I meet (or want to meet).
The database contains keywords for the university, country, and can search for subject and author at the same time. My most used database has information on about 1600 reprints, including information About the Author. You can also insert abstracts of the article into the database.
