Creating Citations in NoodleTools

How to start a new project and a source list

1. On the MY Projects screen, select New project.

 

 

2. On the Create a New Project screen, enter a name for your project and select the appropriate citation style and level. Click Submit. 

NOTE: Once you create a project, you can still change citation styles and levels later.

 

  

3. The Dashboard screen appears. The Dashboard organizes your work environment. Select My Projects and then the title of the project. 

 

 
4. To begin citing sources, select sources and then new source. 

 

5. On the Sources screen, under Where is It? select the best match for your source from the choices given. Then from "What is it?" select the type of source you want to cite. 

 

 
6. Fill in the citation form with information about your source. If you have a doi number enter it. If not, you can scroll down and use the article to add author, title, journal and other citation information. You can also add an annotation at this point. You can also come back after you have created the citation to add annotations. When you are finished, select Save. 
 

 
7. After you finish entering information about your source, click Submit to save your new citation.
