Citation Managers
Bibliographic Management Software
Bibliographic management tools work directly with library databases and the web, allowing you to collect and organize your citations and pdfs. They also work with word processing software like Word to allow you to insert properly formatted citations into your paper and automatically generate a properly formatted bibliography. Some popular free citation managers supported by Princeton are:
- Zotero (exports .bib files)
- Mendeley (works well with LaTeX)
- EndNote Web
How can I get additional help/training in one of these software packages?
- Attend one of the "Bibliographies made easy" sessions.
