Zotero
Easily create lists of reference (or bibliographies) in the correct format for use in your research. Zotero works with Microsoft Word and the Open-Source LibreOffice Writer.
Zotero is free to use, although there is the option to pay for additional online storage for your references.
Please note that Zotero is not officially supported by the library and we can only offer limited support with using this software.
Zotero has both a desktop component, which you will need to download to your computer, and an optional web-based version that you can use to access your reference library online. Zotero works on Windows, Mac and Linux.
Zotero can be downloaded from https://www.zotero.org/
You can set up a free Zotero account if you wish to use the optional web-based version of the software.
You can also access their free, simple to use reference generator here: https://zbib.org/
Information and further help on using Zotero can be found from Zotero Support.
