Reference management
Keep track of your references
Reference management programmes are ideal for helping you to collect and manage bibliographic information easily. They enable you to export title data from specialist databases and library catalogues, insert literature citations into your own work, and automatically create a reference list.
Say adieu to total paper chaos, lost citations and painstakingly created bibliographies!
Important note
Due to the current situation, workshops in the library are unfortunately not possible at the moment. Instead, we offer regular webinars on Citavi and Zotero.
You can also take advantage of our personal consultation in our office hours: every Thursday from 11:00 to 12:00 in the TIB Technik/Naturwissenschaften, Welfengarten 1 B (0511 762-2268).
We would also be happy to give you virtual advice. If you would like a virtual consultation, please send an e-mail to: literaturverwaltungtibeu
