{% hint style="info" %}
Reference manager integration is a [premium feature](/getting-started/free-and-premium-plans/premium-features.md). Overleaf premium features are available to participants in Overleaf Commons, members of group subscriptions, and owners of individual subscriptions.

Overleaf offers integrations with popular reference management tools: **Papers**, **Zotero**, and **Mendeley**.

Overleaf's reference manager integrations allow you to import entire .bib files that are synchronized with your reference manager, or build your project's .bib file dynamically with data from your reference manager using the [Advanced Reference Search feature.](/citing-and-references/creating-a-bibliography.md)
