Scrivener: Organize Your Writing
Description
Scrivener is software developed to help with long writing projects such as screenplays, novels, and dissertations. The University of Minnesota’s Personal Information Management Collaborative, identified Scrivener as a valuable resource for our graduate students to assist with organizing and pulling together the many pieces of information that go into their writing. We are developing a workshop to help students get the most out of this tool. This poster presentation will give an overview of what Scrivener is and show examples of how it can be used to pull together the disparate parts of a written academic work to aid the author and facilitate organization of sources, coding of information, use of multiple forms of media, and a nonlinear writing process.
