Use throughout research project to track sources, take notes, create outlines, collaborate with classmates, and format bibliographies.

Students can export citations directly to NoodleTools from ABC-CLIO, Gale, JSTOR, NewBanks, EBSCO, and Fact on File databases. Students should check the accuracy of the citations after NoodleTools has formatted them and make any necessary adjustments, as the tranfer from database to NoodleTools does produce some errors and omissions.
