Reference Management with Mendeley: A Complete Guide

The study was prepared to eliminate the deficiencies in the use of digital instruments in the academic writing process. The most important of these instruments is the Mendeley Program. Upon completion of the training in question, it is aimed to obtain basic knowledge and interpretation level of Mendeley, an academic reference management and social media tool. The impact of computer-based instruments, which make their impact in every field along with digital transformation, in academic processes continues to increase day by day. In this context, we have prepared five lessons for you regarding the program in question. Our first lesson covered how to register for the Mendeley program and how to install this program and its side elements on our computer. In our second lesson, a practical demonstration was given on the effective use of the Mendeley Program's website. In our third lesson, we focused on the methodology of loading resources into the Mendeley program. In our fourth lesson, we followed the path of creating folders and groups in the program in question. In our last lesson, our training ended by explaining how to reference a Microsoft Word document synchronously while carrying out an academic study with the Mendeley program and how to create a bibliography section with this program. In addition, it was planned to provide visual convenience to the participants by sharing a user guide for the Mendeley Program in the content of the training. During our Reference Management Training with Mendeley, a practical module was presented to the participants on why the program in question is important during the academic career and how it is used effectively.
