Does Mendeley support the import of literature resources in specific disciplines?

Mendeley supports the import of literature resources regardless of specific academic disciplines. Its core import functionality is discipline-agnostic. The platform imports references using standardized file formats like BibTeX, RIS, Endnote XML, and common file types including PDFs. Users can drag-and-drop files, use browser plugins, or manually enter details. This universality applies across all fields including sciences, social sciences, humanities, and engineering. Key limitations concern technical compatibility with the file format or source database rather than the subject matter. Discipline-specific import plugins or dedicated parsers are generally unnecessary. This discipline-neutral import capability ensures seamless integration of diverse literature into personal Mendeley libraries. Users can subsequently leverage Mendeley’s features—such as subject-specific keywords, journal title sorting, or shared group libraries—to organize and analyze resources within their field.
