Mendeley (Web) is a free reference program for students and researchers. It is also an academic social network to connect with fellow researchers and share documents. You can use Mendeley to generate citations and bibliographies in Microsoft Word, LibreOffice and LaTeX. You can also read and annotate full-text articles and import and organise PDFs from your computer, EndNote, etc.
There is a Web version (open the Mendeley Web tab for more information) and a Desktop version. To install these versions you need to register. Installation is straightforward and takes only two minutes. Both versions are free and are synchronised with one another.
The current version is 1.17 for Windows, Macintosh, Linux, Android and iOS.
