Citation Generator

B.D Owen’s Library needs a Citation Manager for its Students/Faculty/Staff and other users which can allow them to create APA, MLA and other Citations

The main objective of this project is to build an application which allows registered users to create, copy, export, edit, interchange formats and organize citations in different formats and allows non-registered users to create, copy, export, edit and interchange formats of citations ​Only an authenticated user can organize the generated citations into folders​. The generated citation can be made visible to the public to the non-authenticated user. However, an authenticated user can create and add citations to folders.

Some features include:

• Generate and Clone Citations
• Save to Folders
• Clone & Export Citations
• Delete Citations
• Sort & Filter Generated Citations
