Workshops and Workshop Recordings
During the academic term the Library offers free workshops for graduate and undergraduate students to help you learn more about citation managers and how they can help you save time and stay organized. You will learn the basics from importing and organizing references, to creating bibliographies.
If you can't attend a live workshop, you can watch the recording of it at another time.
