Mendeley is a company based in London, UK, which provides products and services for academic researchers. It is most known for its reference manager which is used to manage and share research papers and generate bibliographies for scholarly articles.
You can install Mendeley using any of the following methods. We suggest using an email address that is not your SSU address.
It does not matter what database you are on, adding items to Mendeley is easy! Once you find an article you like, simply click the Mendeley bookmarklet in Chrome.
Here is what your screen will look like when you click the above Mendeley bookmarklet:
Using the Mendeley plug-in for Word, you can easily create in-text citations and bibliographies. From the Word Menu, select References. You should see Open Mendeley. Click this.
You will need to select your citation style. If you don't see your style listed (by default Mendeley only lists the most popular citation styles), select More Styles and search for the citation style you need and select it.
To insert an in-text citation, click on Insert Citation. A searchable pop-up box will appear. You can search your Mendeley library by author, title, or keyword. Once you find the resource you need to cite, select it. Mendeley will then automatically create an in-text citation into your document.
To create a bibliography, click Insert Bibliography. You will see your bibliography automatically appear in front of you!
