Zotero
Zotero is a reference management tool and is available for both Windows and Mac.
Requirement: browser Firefox Version 3.0
The programme can be downloaded directly from the Zotero web site. You will find Zotero included on the browser bar after you re-start Firefox.
Zotero is designed to grab, bibliographic information, e.g. from library catalogues, databases, the web, and store it so it can be used later for creating citations, bibliographies and reference lists. It is easy to insert a quote in the paper you are working on when using MS Word or Open Word and to create a grammatically correct bibliography with the citation style you need.
Here is a five part tutorial to help you learn the 'tips and tricks' for using Zotero.
