Managing citations and writing tips
Tip:
create your
citations as you collect research material, and save your list in Noodlebib. This will make creating your in-text citations a
breeze. Don't make creating your bibliography the last thing you do in
the research process, it takes twice as much time.
Noodlebib
creates
references in APA and MLA formats, *password and ID required, see
