Insert citations as you write
Search your library from Word or Google Docs, insert citations, and find sources for a sentence.
- Open the Mosaic add-in and choose the "Cite" tab.
- Choose the project whose library you want.
- Search "Search title, author or journal" and choose "Insert" on a paper.
The citation goes in at your cursor, and the References list at the end of the document updates itself. Each "Insert" adds one citation.
Find a source for a sentence
Highlight a sentence of at least five words. In "Highlighted in your document", choose "Find in library" to look for supporting passages in your papers, or "Find on web" to search academic databases. Results are labelled "Best match", "Supports the sentence" or "Partly supports it".
Do not place the cursor inside the References list when inserting. For styles and the reference list, see Change the citation style and manage references.
