Reference management tools

Simplify your research or your studies using a reference management tool such as EndNote. 

Managing references with EndNote

To be able to handle references in an efficient manner in your research work, a reference management tool can be used. Using such a tool, you collect your references in a separate reference library. When you write documents, such as a journal article or a thesis, you collect and paste the references by using certain commands in Word.

It is also possible to easily format the references in a document according to different reference systems, such as APA, Harvard, Vancouver or according to the instructions of a particular journal. There are both licensed and free programs to use. One of the most common licensed programs is EndNote.

For staff

The library offers teaching and supervision in EndNote for Kristianstad University staff. Contact Annika Hellbring, librarian.
