Mendeley Institutional

Mendeley is a reference manager, an academic social network and a scientific literature collaborative catalog. It allows to manage your research, showcase your work, connect and collaborate with over six million researchers worldwide.

Mendeley allows you:
 

  • Generate bibliographies automatically.
  • Find relevant documents of your areas of interest.
  • Easily import documents from other platforms.
  • Collaborate easily with other online users.
  • Access your documents from anywhere via web.


Mendeley combines a desktop version (Mendeley Reference Manager) with a web version (Mendeley Web), which must be synchronized.
