[humanser] CItation managers and Jaws or NVDA

Sat Mar 11 01:03:10 UTC 2017

I use refworks. It is not too bad with jaws. I Haven't tried it with NVDA.
As a simple method, I use the epsco account.
You just log on and creat folders and store your articles there. You
can select the articles and hit print button. Then it will ask you to
waht to print. If you select "only references" option, it will give
you the full references. You can coppy and paste it to your word
document. This does not do in-text citation, but simple and free.
Check your school library, they generally support one reference
management tooll, so you can try it for free.
