Citation Management
EndNote and Zotero are the two popular citation management tools that Library supports. We recommend UCSF students use Zotero unless students work with faculty for the research projects and faculty prefer to use Endnote. These two citation management tools can help you organize your personal library, generate in-text citations, and create a reference list in any style of your choice.
