Bookends is able to carry out Internet searches in a number of websites such as Pubmed and Google Scholar in order to retrieve references and corresponding PDF files or web pages, or to obtain references for articles in PDF format which were already retrieved. These search capabilities are also present in Reference Miner, a freeware scaled-down version of Bookends which lacks bibliographic management features.

There also exists a version of Apple's iOS that can either be used as a stand-alone reference manager or synchronized with the desktop version.[3]
