Mendeley is a free reference management and academic social networking tool. It allows users to organize references and PDFs, take notes, and share papers. Mendeley extracts metadata from imported articles and PDFs. It can insert citations into Word documents and automatically generate bibliographies. Mendeley also allows users to discover research trends, see statistics about their own publications, and follow other researchers.
