Searching and Selecting

Citavi offers you four different search options to help you quickly find an individual reference, a quotation, or a thought: Go to, Quick search, Advanced search, and Quick select.

Go to lets you quickly switch to a particular reference. Quick search and Advanced search can be used to find information in your project and also to save the search results as a selection. You can then use this selection for other applications, such as creating a project bibliography.

Quick select is usually the fastest way to see a selection of your references organized according to specific criteria.
