Having studied in the US school for my PhD, the first thing my PI taught me was the usage of reference managers. As someone in the business of publishing manuscripts; be it review, research, book chapters, short communications and project proposals, one needs to know the art of managing references. From what you may or may not know, there are few top-notch reference management softwares: Endnote, Mendeley and Zotero which are accessible to institutes globally. Amongst these, Mendeley and Zotero can be downloaded freely as a desktop version or used online. However, my personal experience with Endnote has been phenomenal. Although, it is a paid download but a one-time purchase will guarantee smooth addition of references/ bibliographies to any word file. Here is a guide to use Endnote (https://rmit.libguides.com/endnote/word-windows). You can reach out to me for any help on Endnote however in my opinion google will be sufficient to solve any query you may have regarding it.
