Citation managers can help you save, organize, and cite your sources.

Citation managers, also called reference management tools, let you save and organize your sources and then use them to create citations, bibliographies, footnotes or endnotes, and works cited lists in a variety of citation styles. Not only are they enormous time-savers, they also enable researchers to create their own databases of research sources and share them with others.

See the library's research guide on citation managers for more.

The library supports the free, open-source citation manager Zotero.

• See our guide to Zotero.
• Check the library learning page for upcoming workshops on Zotero.
