Citation managers are software that helps you track, organize, and properly cite your sources as you do research. They can help you:
     ♦ Collect citation information from library catalogs, article databases, and other collections of sources that you may wish to cite.
     ♦ Organize your sources by topic or project, add keywords to help you find them, and add notes.
     ♦ Store copies of article PDFs and other full-text content.
     ♦ Create in-line citations and bibliographies, in many different reference styles, by working with your word processor.

You still need to know your Style Guide!
