Organizing student research projects

Citavi

For members of the HFT Stuttgart, the library will continue to provide a campus license for Citavi until the end of March 2025.
Please note: From 1.4.2025 we will no longer be able to offer the software as a free campus license. Please remember to move your reference management to another system in good time if you do not wish to purchase a personal license.

Zotero

We recommend the open source system Zotero as an alternative to Citavi. You can find all relevant information about Zotero here.
If you have any questions about using the reference management programme Zotero, we can also support you online via Zoom.
Please make an appointment by e-mail bibliothek@hft-stuttgart.de
