LibGuides: Mendeley (English): List of references in Word

Microsoft Word and Mendeley

Option 1: If you want to use Mendeley for referencing in Microsoft Office Word:

In Mendeley Desktop, go to Tools > Install MS Word Plug-in.
In Microsoft Word, the Mendeley Insert Citation will appear in the ‘References’ or "verwijzingen" tab.
Select Insert Citation > Go to Mendeley.
Select a reference and click ‘Cite’ at the top. This will send the citation to Microsoft Word.
Select your referencing style, then click ‘Insert Bibliography’. The style, which is often determined by a journal or society, is a way of describing a reference.

You can also use BibTeX to format references as .bib-files and to import them into LaTeX.

Option 2: install the "Get Mendeley Cite" Microsoft add-in.
