What is citation management?

Citing your papers is an important part of the research process.

However, citing your papers can also become one of the more frustrating and time-consuming parts of the research process. Citation management software can help you save time by allowing you to:

• Collect citations from your online databases, library catalogues and websites
• Organize, edit, and search through the citations you've saved
• Build and organize bibliographies in well-known styles like APA, MLA, and even style-specific journals like Nature
• Format citations for papers
• Take notes on articles and save them in your collection of citations
• Save and organize PDFs, screenshots, graphs, images, and other files for your research--even offline!
