A citation manager is a tool that can help you organize the different sources (books, journal articles, websites, etc.) that you work with, and automatically generate in-text citations and bibliographies for you.
With a citation manager, you can:
- Save detailed citation information and PDFs associated with sources
- Organize all your sources in one place
- Generate in-text citations and bibliographies in thousands of citation styles
- Share source information with your collaborators
- Reduce the time you spend on citation
