This session will quickly compare the three major options for bibliographic management software – RefWorks, EndNote and Zotero – and help you decide which is right for you. All the tools have their own strengths, and the important thing is that you use something, so come do a little comparison shopping with us.
Please note, we also offer a “self-help” option – just check this handy comparison guide and then select from the sessions below.
