Reference management tools
You can import references from Oria and various article databases. You can use the software to create references while writing in Word, and to create a bibliography in your preferred reference style.
What should you choose?
It is easy to get started with Zotero, and the tool is less complicated than EndNote when it comes to configuring and managing your reference library. The tool has sufficient features to meet the needs of the average user and works well for collaboration with others. Zotero is free, and you do not need a VID license to use it.
EndNote offers more advanced functionality and is suitable for those who have large amounts of references to manage in complex tasks/projects. It is also an advantage if you have fairly good IT skills. VID has licenses for EndNote, allowing you to use it for free as long as you are a student or employee at VID.
