Below is a brief description of citation manager tools. For further guidance and assistance in citing sources or using citation manager tools, please contact your liaison librarian (contact info on this guide), or see the VT University Libraries library guide on Citation Ethics and Citation Managers.

Citation Manager Tools: Virginia Tech Libraries supports three different citation managers:

• EndNote (provided by Virginia Tech Libraries) | EndNote X9 Tutorials
• Mendeley (free) | Mendeley Tutorials 
• Zotero (free) | Zotero Tutorials

Each of these tools can be helpful, depending on what type of project you're working on.  View this citation manager comparison chart from the University of Wisconsin-Madison for help deciding which tool to use:
