Mendeley: Citation Management

Mendeley is a free citation management program. It is NOT supported by UGA, as are RefWorks and EndNote, but it is an option.

Training

UGA Librarians

UGA Librarians do not have Mendeley training, and UGA does not support Mendeley. However, we've put together some of Medeley's help resources on this LibGuide..

Most Common Issues

Mendeley Client -- Microsoft Template and Add-in problems

  • Multiple citation managers are incompatible

If you have another citation management program installed on your computer, you will have to disable it in Word before Word will work with Mendeley. In the example below, EndNote is checked, but Mendeley is not. You would need to reverse this, and uncheck the EndNote Add-ins for Mendeley to work.

Word Tools menu with Templates and add ins selected.    Word Templates and add-ins options

Uncheck the other citation management ".dotm" then click ok.

 

 

Compatibility issues

If you have a Mac, you need to use an operating system older than Big Sur. This should not be a problem for systems updated in 2022 or later.
