Citation Managers: What do they do?
• Organize your citations.
• Import citations from library catalogs, WorldCat.org (and BU
WorldCat), databases, and even websites like Amazon or EBay.
• Export citations into bibliographies, following well-known style guides
(Chicago, Turabian, MLA, APA, etc.)

What else can they do?
• Store files attached to your citations (PDFs, word documents).
e.g. Attach your article to its citation in Mendeley, and then add a word document
with your notes.
• Keyword search across thousands of cited sources AND stored
files.

Storing Your Citations in the Clouds
• Paper files, floppy disks, USBs, and now… the CLOUD.
• Your research, anywhere you want it.
• Embedded tools to access your research directly within the software you use most.
• Worried about losing the password? Add a backup email or your link your phone number. Worried about losing your research? Save it to multiple clouds.
