There are several tools that make saving your sources (journal articles, books, and web pages) and creating a bibliography much easier than keeping track of it all yourself. Below are just a few suggested citation management resources: Endnote- the library subscribes to Endnote Web, which is available from any computer, and EndNote, which you download to your own computer. Zotero- is a free Open Source Firefox extension that allows you to collect, manage, and cite your online research sources. The UT CVM currently does not support Firefox. You'll need to use this on your personal machine only for now (March 2009). Since Zotero is Open Source, you can use it after you graduate and get all the subsequent updates automatically. More about Zotero on here. If you use another tool or resource, feel free to post suggestions or email us.
