How to use Mendeley How to use:
1. First, download Mendeley to your laptop and create an account. 2. Then once you have an account, open the application and on top there should be an option that says add file. 3. Add manually if the website doesn’t give you an option to cite its work. When you add manually just choose the web page option and add the information you have gathered from the site itself. 4. Once you’re done go to word by the tool bar, and there should be an option that says cite with Mendeley. You will click that option and choose the citation you entered manually by selecting it’s name. 5. After you do that, click the option that says add bib, and your citation should be there.
