Citation managers are tools to collect and manage citation information while doing research. There are many such tools available, some free and some requiring a license or subscription. Examples are Zotero, Mendeley, Endnote, and PaperPile.
Benefits of using a citation manager:
- generate in-text citations
- generate a bibiography
- organize citations
Adelphi Libraries’ recommendation is Zotero.
