About citemaker
CiteMaker is a web-based citation tool for preparing reference lists and bibliographies for academic assignments. The user selects a citation style, creates citations automatically or through manual forms, and then copies the reference list into a paper or exports it. The site lists APA, Chicago, Harvard, MLA and Oxford styles, and its homepage also shows APA 6, MLA 8 and 9, and Turabian options.
Automatic creation works from a BibTeX entry, a book ISBN, or a website URL or DOI. In-text citations are created alongside the reference list, and entries are arranged in alphabetical order. Completed lists can be copied or exported to email, MS Word, Google Docs or PDF. Saving more than one reference list requires registration. The homepage states a free 30 day trial, after which a yearly subscription fee applies. The subscription price is not stated in the source.
