Literary management programs are mainly there to assist you with reference work and citing sources. You can create a complete literary bibliography using these tools. Effectively using literary management programs helps organize and structure the selected literature.
Citavi is free to use for all employees and students of the FH Kufstein Tirol.
This reference management tool can be used for scientific work. Literature research or the writing process, be it for papers or theses, can be better organized and structured with Citavi. The correct citation style and the layout of the references can be pre-set. It is also possible to create tasks and distribute them, which is particularly interesting for research groups who write texts together.
