Mendeley is a free reference manager that helps you store and organise your references. It has many other useful features, including the option to read, highlight and annotate PDFs and create in-text citations and reference lists
Mendeley will help you to:
- keep your references in order – you can create folders and tags for specific topics
- annotate and classify your references
- provide a searchable library of your PDFs
- create your reference lists in line with the APA7 Author-Date, Cranfield Author-Date and Cranfield Numbered referencing styles, as well as many other journal styles.
Specific features of the free Mendeley service which make it popular among academics are:
- A Mendeley Web Importer plugin which can be added to your browser to enable search results to be easily imported from websites and databases, including PDFs where available
- The option to drag and drop documents into your library
- Up to 2GB storage space and the option to create five private groups with up to 25 members (ideal for group projects!)
Please note, this session will be recorded, and the recording will be shared with session attendees.
