ReadingList

I am attempting to keep track of reading journal articles by maintaining a git repository that contains notes and .bib files specific to certain projects/themes/manuscripts. Although this was originally set up for long-form paper notes, I will also be including less thorough overviews just to keep track of papers I've perused. This project originated as a method of tracking papers when writing my thesis proposal in 2018.

The goal is that these .md files will be able to be indexed by python based on things like author, keywords, and dates. An example file, noteTemplate.md is available in the current directory. Indexing can be done with readingStats.py which will be updated as needed. An accompanying jupyter notebook will be built with widget-based searching.

Paper Folders

Notes (author, year, journal in file header) on readings. Top of each note document has authors, year, journal, title, and keywords as subsections that can be used to later index through files if needed. Each folder contains a .bib file updated with each new .md note file for use in compiling references in LaTeX. Upon reading each paper, a new note file is made, an addition is entered into the .bib file, and readingStats.py is executed to repopulate the below list and update the figures above.
