Held online at 11:00 – 12:00, 27th February 2025
Speaker: Kerriane Orriss, Teaching and Learning Librarian, University of Bristol
With so many options available, choosing a reference manager can be overwhelming and confusing. In this 60-minute webinar, we will look at three of the most commonly-used reference managers: Endnote, Mendeley and Zotero. We will explore key considerations such as the learning curve of the software, their compatibility with word processors and how easily they import various file formats. There will be a demonstration of each reference manager, illustrating their main features and advantages, as well as a quick comparison of the software and their pros and cons.
Choosing a reference manager is essential in the early stages of doctoral research and when collaborating on a literature review within a research team.
This is the second webinar in the SWDTP literature review series and is presented by Kerrianne Orriss, who is a Teaching and Learning Librarian at the University of Bristol. Please note this session will be recorded. Some limited participation may be elicited in the session (no breakout groups).
