Mendeley<\/a> (opens in new tab) is a reference management program produced by Elsevier. Like Zotero and other similar programs, Mendeley helps you to manage references and generate bibliographies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mendeley is available as a free of charge version and as a chargeable version. The free version provides you with 2 GB of web storage space. The chargeable version is not available at the University of Eastern Finland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You have to create your personal free Elsevier account<\/a> (opens in new tab) in order to use Mendeley. Do not create a new account if you already have one for another Elsevier product such as Scopus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mendeley consists of three programs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Mendeley Reference Manager<\/strong> is a desktop application you install on your computer for managing references. You do not need administrator privileges for installation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Mendeley Web Importer<\/strong> installed on your browser enables easy importing of references and full articles from several databases to your Mendeley library.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Mendeley Cite<\/strong> is an add-in program you install on your word processor (Word for Windows, Word for Mac, Word Online). The add-in is needed for adding citations and bibliographies to texts. PLEASE NOTE<\/strong>: Mendeley Cite does not work correctly if Track Changes function is turned on in Word. A single citation in text, for example, may be multiplied unintentionally.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
