IOE 424: Practicum

Citation management software helps you:

• organize references, PDFs, and images
• take notes on references and PDFs
• format bibliographies and in-text citations in hundreds of citations styles
• share references and collaborate on projects with colleagues

This guide only covers citation software supported by the library: Zotero, Mendeley, and EndNote. When deciding which one to use consider your research habits, word processing, and collaboration/sharing needs. These programs can work with each other and some people may need to use more than one throughout their academic career.

To learn more about different citation styles and to understand why proper citation is important, please visit our Citation Help guide.

To learn more about individual citation management applications, such as Zotero, Mendeley, EndNote, and BibTex, please see this guide on citation management.
