Citation or reference management software collects your journal article, book, or other document citations together in one place, and helps you create properly formatted bibliographies in almost any style with just the click of the mouse. Citation management tools help you keep track of your sources while you work and store your references for future use and reuse. 

While each citation management tool provides some unique features, all of the following tools can help you: 

• Access and manage your sources online, all in one place
• Import references from library databases and websites 
• Automatically generate bibliographies and in-text citations within Microsoft Word
• Share your collection of sources with others
• Work with NVivo (Windows and Mac) or other research software
