The website lets you add an internet address (for a web site or electronic journal article, for example) or search for a book. It will then give you the correct reference in the style you have selected (for other types of item you may have to manually add more details).
There are a huge amount of bibliographic styles available, from common ones like Harvard or Vancouver, through to different societies (e.g. the APA) through to "house styles" for particular journals (e.g. the British Journal of Psychiatry). All are easily selectable from a drop down menu.
As well as books, journals and web sites, Cite This For Me also has options to reference:
- newpaper articles
- podcasts
- blogs
- press releases
- DVDs / films
- ...and many more
You can create a whole bibliography which you can then export as a MS Word compatible .rtf file. Your bibliography will be stored for up to 7 days (which is unlimited if you opt to upgrade to the paid version of the site). There is even a Google Chrome extension to make it easier to update your bibliography on the fly.
Cite For Me is a really useful tool for students, academics, writers and anyone who has to produce a document that involved reference. It is easy to use and does most of the hard work for you. We highly recommend it.
