Zotero & Mendeley

How can I keep track of my sources? 

Try using a Citation Manager.

Question: Answer:
What do they do?  Citation managers collect the details about each source you used and help you to cite in-text and create your bibliography.
What are the pros & cons of using one?

Pro: Source details are automatically saved, organized, and stored.

Con: They are not 100% accurate. Users should double check their citations.
Can I store documents there? Yes! Some full text stores automatically or you can upload documents.
Where do I access one? 

You can access Zotero or Mendeley free online.
