Post to CiteULike


CiteULike can automatically extract the citation details from certain supported sites. If you want to post an article available on one of these sites, you should see the bookmarklet posting page or, if you're still having trouble, read the posting FAQ. It's quite often possible to find your article on one of these supported sites. For instance, biomedical papers are almost always listed on PubMed.

You may also be seeing this page because you've tried one of the above methods but we weren't able to process the URL.


If you use this page to type the details in yourself, your article will appear in your library as normal, but not on CiteULike's front page.

When both "author" and "editor" are marked as required (†), typically only one is needed.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
