Getting started with Mendeley Cite

What is Mendeley Cite?

Mendeley Cite add-in for Microsoft® Word allows you to easily insert references from your Mendeley library into your Word document, change your citation style and generate a bibliography - all without leaving your document.

You can use Mendeley Cite to:

• Search for references in your Mendeley library and insert them into the document you're working on.
• Select and insert individual or multiple references at once.
• Create a bibliography of all the references you've cited.
• Change to any of your preferred citation styles in just a few clicks.
• Cite without having Mendeley Reference Manager open or even installed - once you sign in to Mendeley Cite, your Mendeley library is downloaded from the cloud.
• Keep sight of your Word document at all times - Mendeley Cite opens as a separate panel in Word alongside your document window, not over it.

Mendeley Cite is a free, simple add-in for Microsoft Word versions 2016 and above, with the Microsoft Word app for iPad® and with Microsoft Word Online.
