Citation management tools are very handy to use to keep your citations organized as you are conducting research. Most of these tools will allow you to create an extension on your web browser that will allow you to transfer the citation information of an article directly from the webpage to the citation tool. These tools also can create bibliographies for you in most of the major citation styles. For more information on citation management tools check out UPENN's guide here.
