Citation Managers, also known as Citation Management Tools, are designed to help the research workflow.
Each tool has different features but in general, many can help you:
- Keep track of articles, books, websites, and other resources for your project or paper
- Store available full-text PDFs for a specific source
- Annotate your sources
- Create bibliographies of your sources for various citation styles
- Use plug-ins to insert in-text citations as you write.
