Mendeley is a free reference manager and academic social network that helps you store and organise your references. It provides 2GB of storage for free and has many other useful features, including the option to read, highlight and annotate PDFs.
We support Mendeley, and provide advice and training to enable you to make best use of it.
Take a look at our Mendeley Reference Manager Workshop guide to get started. If you have never used Mendeley before please log in using the ‘institutional log in’ options.
Other referencing software is available, but we may be unable to help if issues arise.
Both our current Author-Date style (APA7) and our Numbered style (NLM) are supported by Mendeley.
For other Cranfield bespoke styles, please refer to the guidance below:
Please email us or contact your Librarian if you need help using Mendeley. We can help you more efficiently if you provide us with the exact text of error messages, send us screenshots, and information about the operating system and browser that you are using.
