Citavi campus license
The reference management program Citavi supports you in your research in library catalogs and specialist databases, manages your literature sources and, in conjunction with Word, Open Office Writer and LaTeX, enables convenient citation and the automatic creation of bibliographies in different citation styles.
The University of Potsdam has a campus license for Citavi, which enables all members with a valid UP e-mail address to use this software for individual projects and the joint management of literature in working groups.
