Using citation managers

A citation manager is software for organizing your references and producing beautifully formatted bibliographies. Be sure to check with a professor or advisor about whether or not your program requires use of a specific citation manager. The Biology program currently requires students use EndNote.

Current Northeastern students, staff and faculty can get help from the library for these citation managers: 

EndNote  

RefWorks  

Mendeley

Zotero

The university and university libraries also provide access to Overleaf for formatting scientific papers, especially with diacritics and formulas.
