Citavi is a reference management programme for Microsoft Windows, which supports your entire research process - from searching for sources to citing and finishing your paper.
Additional to classical references management tools Citavi offers functions for knowledge organisation and task planning. An online search feature allows you to search databases and catalogues from within the programme.
With the new web version of Citavi, you are able to create and manage projects regardless of the operating system – Mac OS, Windows or Linux. All you need is an internet connection and a Citavi account.

OpenURL: http://sfx.bib-bvb.de/sfx_tum
EZproxyURL: https://eaccess.tum.edu/login
When using "Find full text" search, after having added the above mentioned link, you will be asked if you wish to "Log in to https://eacces.tum.edu/login". To search for licensed full texts, log in with your TUM ID (TUM e-mail adress + password) and click LogIn. You can then close the login window.
