Citation management tools allow you to:
- build a database of your references.
- attach articles to references so that all your research is in one place.
- store notes with references.
- search references
- cite your sources in your paper with a touch of a button.
- automatically build your bibliography (also called works cited/reference list).
- easily change your citation style if needed(e.g. APA to MLA, Chicago, etc).
Citation generators allow you to:
- create a citation and bibliographic reference that you can copy and paste into your document.
NOTE: Citation generators do not save your references.
