When I was at university tools such as Zotero / Mendeley / citeulike were not available and bibliographies and references were sometimes painstaking to compile, but would I have used them even if they were. I am going to look at them all with a view to using one of them to help compile my references for my chartership submission.
We do run reference classes for our students that are progressing onto university and have a referencing course set up on Blackboard (VLE) but due to the fact that our computer network does not allow students to download anything to the computer these tools would not be of any use.
Zotero - Probably would not use this one as I tend to use IE rather than Firefox
Mendeley - This requires you to download the software, which I am unable to do on the computers at work so it looks like I won't be using this either.
Cite U like - I like the fact that you can attach PDF's to your references and I think this is probably the best of the 3 tools.
None of the above really fit what I am looking for so I think when I do finally get around to compiling my bibliography for Chartership I will investigate other tools.
