Citation Management Tools

Welcome citation users!

Follow the instructions in this research guide for using citation management software tools. Citation management tools allow you to collect and organize citations for your research assignments, and format your citations in the writing style of your choice (i.e. APA, AMA, MLA, etc.)  Citation management tools also have add-ons which enable you to write a paper by inserting in-text citations and a bibliograpy in the writing style required by your program. 

Please note: The  RefWorks citation management tool is not being renewed for 2025/2026. In its place, users have the option of using EndNote, which is part of Marymount's Web of Science database subscription, or other free citation management tools of their choice (i.e. Mendeley, Zotero, etc.) The library recommends that students, faculty, and staff who have RefWorks accounts transition their RefWorks content to a new citation management tool NOW. 

Follow the instructions below for migrating citations from RefWorks to EndNote Online, Mendeley, or Zotero.
