Source Management Spreadsheet

Table output

Track sources, notes and use in one place.

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.

Design a spreadsheet for managing sources. Type of project and number of sources: [PROJECT_SOURCES]. Tools I use for citations, if any: [CITATION_TOOLS]. How I take notes: [NOTE_HABITS].

Create columns: ID, full citation, where found, date accessed, type, relevance (1 to 5), key points in my words, quotations with page numbers, how I will use it, status (to read, read, cited), and file location. Add data validation lists, a filter view for sources to read, and a formula to count sources by status. Provide naming conventions for files and a routine for updating the sheet. Include a backup plan and a reminder to save access dates for online sources. Show three invented example rows labelled as illustrations.

Also add a weekly routine of ten minutes to update statuses, a way to link each source to the section of the paper where it is used, and a final check that every cited source is present with a full reference.

Fill in before use

Optional: type your details and the prompt above updates. Nothing is saved or sent.

Replace each bracketed placeholder with your own details, then paste into Any AI or another assistant.
