Keeping track of your sources is a vitally important part of research. Citation management softwares help you keep track of what articles, books, and journals you are reading, either for class, for research, or for fun. Managing your citations will come in handy when you are writing your bibliographies or when you are looking for an article you read two years ago and want to quote again.
UF provides access to a variety of citation management softwares, which you can compare using the Citation Management Library Guide.
The first link for each will take you directly to the software and will open in a new tab.

CAB International (CABI) Database
Travel and tourism is one of the world’s largest industries, representing 9% of total global GDP, 5% of world exports, and supporting one in eleven of all the world's jobs. Travel and tourism is a vital component of economic development and poverty reduction in many of the worlds’ poorest countries.
Since the 1970s, CABI has been covering the global literature in travel, tourism, leisure, recreation, sport, hospitality and culture. CABI offers unique resources supporting research and learning. We collate information not just from specialist journals and books in the leisure and tourism fields, but also all relevant material from CABI’s wider coverage in rural development, health, economics and the environment.
The Compendium of Tourism Statistics is issued by the United Nations World Tourism Organization and contains a wealth of data organized by country. This title has ceased print production this year but is available to us now as an electronic resource.
