We outline a novel approach to this problem that uses the text in an Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) as a representation of an experimental context in the field of Chemistry. The contribution of this work is to situate the literature recommendation task within the context of the user's experimental information needs. We find that our approach to transform the ELN text into queries for use with PubMed is able to recover a subset of user bibliographies. We find that alternative methods for query generation that capture both scientific terminology and salient terms in the ELN complement each other.", |

LabTrove, designed by the University of Southampton, has been designed with Chemistry researchers in mind, allowing them to post daily updates about their research outcomes. Although we focus on chemistry ELN entries in this work, LabTrove is potentially more widely usable by other researchers in the experimental sciences. A screenshot of the LabTrove interface is presented in Figure 1 . Ideally, we would conduct user studies to evaluate the effectiveness of the suggested references for a knowledge discovery task; however, the time required for such a study makes this approach prohibitive for exploratory research. In lieu of such studies, we describe the extent to which generated queries can reconstruct the bibliographies of users, a slightly different scenario to knowledge discovery. An instance of the LabTrove ELN was in use at the chemistry department in the University of New South Wales.
