New NoodleTools interface

NoodleTools is a resource that is available to you as a student at ECC. Students use NoodleTools to help compile their bibliographies and organize their research.

If you haven’t used NoodleTools for a while, they have a new and updated interface.

Your sign in information has not changed.  

Use our NoodleTools Research Guide to walk you through creating your personal ID, creating and printing your bibliography, using outline and notecards features, and sharing and collaborating your work with others, and more.

If you need help using NoodleTools, consult with a librarian.

Citing and collaborating made easier? YES! Try NoodleTools

NoodleTools is an online site that provides “integrated tools for note-taking, outlining, citation, document archiving/annotation, and collaborative research and writing”, similar to using Google Drive.

The library has created a Research Guide to help you effectively use and navigate NoodleTools. Check it out if you need help getting started with NoodleTools!

To create your works cited/bibliography, you will need to create a free account through the library’s website here.  Then create a project and add your citations, either by typing them into the correct fields (author, title, etc.), or by cutting/pasting them from the database source. This tab in the Research Guide walks you through the specific process of creating and printing your works cited/bibliography.

If you need a quick tutorial, come to the library and talk with one of the librarians.  We are located in Building C, or contact us for more information.

Citing got you down? We can help!

NoodleTools App is here!

NoodleTools Companion is the latest addition to the NoodleTools mobile platform. The iOS and Android apps are FREE for all NoodleTools subscribers. Click below to download from your app of choice.
You can capture BOOK information easily by scanning a book’s ISBN to generate a perfectly-formatted citation once it is routed to your NoodleTools project. After adding an annotation (or notes), the citation can then be routed directly into the student’s NoodleTools project of choice.

This app is optimized for phone screens, but can be used on an iPad or other tablet.

To access NoodleTools, go to this site.  You will need to register (it’s free!) if you don’t already have an account.

For additional information and a tutorial on NoodleTools, see our NoodleTools Research Guide.
