Reference Management

Having trouble keeping track of all your references for that research paper you're writing? Need help formatting your paper and bibliography? Try using a reference management tool like the ones below.

**RefWorks

**NoodleBib **

**Zotero

**CAUTION: Professors have reported that NoodleBib's APA style citations are not always accurate. When using any citation builder (including RefWorks or NoodleBib), you should double-check the results against the appropriate style guide or manual. No automated system is perfect, so always carefully examine the citations that are produced before inserting them into a "Works Cited" or "References" page.
