Introduction to Bibcitation for Citation Management

Bibcitation is a free, easy-to-use, next-generation open-source citation management tool, designed for academics of all levels.  Developed in Vancouver by a local startup, it aims to simplify and streamline the process of generating accurate and responsible citations to make the research process easier and transparent.

This is a tool built specifically for academics and to address the gaps in tools that are currently used and freely available online.
