Reference Managers

The reference page or bibliography can sometimes be the most stressful part of writing a paper, but it doesn't have to be this way! 

Here are three tools you can use to make this process much easier!  Click on the links below to learn more about each.

Be Aware!

Citation software such as Zotero, Mendeley and EndNote Basic are provided for your convenience only. Please use them with caution. They are not perfect, and they do make mistakes when creating bibliographies. Be sure to review the results to check for formatting, spelling, capitalization, punctuation, required elements, etc. for the citation style you are using. Consult the appropriate official style manual for the definitive answer to your citation questions.  

ISU Writing Center

Don't forget that you can use the ISU Writing Center to help you review your paper including your reference page!  Walk-in and appointment service is available for Pocatello or Idaho Falls students, and distance students can get help online. 

Quick Citation Tools

Sometimes you just need to cite a few references. In this case, there's no need to learn a reference manager. Use the tools below instead.
