Getting Started with Mendeley

Getting Started with Mendeley

Using a citation manager like Mendeley to organize your references has numerous advantages, including but not limited to...

  • Collect references as you browse the web or databases
  • Organize, highlight, and annotate your PDFs, all in one place
  • Sync between your devices
  • Automatically rename PDF files you've downloaded
  • Generate citations instantly and change style formats with a few clicks

This is a hands-on workshop, so please bring your laptop with you. By the end of this workshop, you will be able to import your existing references into the program, collect references from the library databases, and be able to generate citations using a Microsoft Word plugin.

Please download the Mendeley software in advance from the Mendeley website.
