Why this course?
Managing your references can be very time consuming: did I read this article, and what did I think of it? Did all the citations and references I used in my document end up in the bibliography? Are the titles in my bibliography correct and do I really have to adjust every title to the correct style one by one? These problems can be solved by using reference management software like Mendeley. The University Library offers a hands-on introductory instruction to Mendeley for everyone who has been postponing the decision to start using a reference manager, for those who got lost in trying to master one on their own, and for those who use one but would like a little help. Upon completion of this course, you will understand how you can use Mendeley to manage your references.
Format
This is a hands-on 2-hour workshop, including theory and practice with Mendeley software for managing your references.
