Quoting and managing literature

PDF files, websites, books & articles – don’t lose track of your sources. Literature management programmes such as Citavi and Endnote can help you to manage your literature efficiently.

What is a literature management programme?

With a literature management programme, you can:

• Import literature references from specialist databases, catalogues and websites
• Collect PDFs – sort your references by topic
• Insert references into your document with a simple click
• Have your bibliography created automatically.

Many programmes are available with a wide range of functions.
