Benefits

Mendeley Cite for Word

• Cite without having Mendeley Desktop open or even installed, minimizing potential performance loss 
• Keep your document in view as you cite: Mendeley Cite opens as a separate panel in Word alongside your document window, not over it, so your whole document remains visible as you find, select and insert references 

Support

Support for Mendeley Cite is offered through the Mendeley Support Center. You can also chat with other Microsoft 365 users at UCSF on the Office 365 Team (open to anyone at UCSF - use the join code 7me7twx). 

Training

You can find training for Mendeley on their Help Guides page. 

Requirements and Limitations
