About CiteWrite

To enter references for your document, use CiteWrite.

CiteWrite is a limited version of Citation Bibliographic and Research Note Software, specifically for use with the Dr Paper templates.

The short tutorial for CiteWrite will get you going in minutes . . .

Here's an overview of how CiteWrite works:

First, enter the bibliographic information for the articles, books, web pages, and other source works you have consulted while researching the issues covered in your paper into one of the notecard-like forms.

Next, you will use CiteWrite to format the intext cites for your paper.

Finally, you'll use CiteWrite to generate the bibliography, or Reference List, for your paper.

Before you begin following the step by step instructions, please have a look at the guidelines for entering bibliographic information, and browse through the list of sample records.
