    Reference Management Tools: Overview

    Which one is the right for you?


    About reference management (and why it is better to use one)

    • A Reference Manager helps you keep track of articles and books as you find them, tag
    and annotate them, and easily create citations and bibliographies in Microsoft Word.

    • Using any Reference Manager will be more efficient for most scholars than not using
    one at all.

    • Each manager has its own plug-in for Microsoft Word and some also have browser plug-
    ins for easy capture of web links.

    • Each manager also has built-in connections to Google Scholar and common library
    reference databases.

    • Each manager has options for group-based collaborative research.


    The most used reference management software:

    v Mendeley A reference management system that helps you organize PDFs and create
    bibliographies

    v Endnote The oldest one, works well for all disciplines and for large collections of articles

    v Zotero An open-source reference manager that is notable for its ease of use, its ability to
    grab screenshots, and its capabilities for archiving website content for local storage.

    v F1000Workspace A web-based application that provides a workspace for researchers to


    collect, write, share and discuss scientific literature.
