RefWorks (Citation Manager) 

A web-based citation and bibliography manager that allows you to create your own personal database of references/citations by importing them from online databases or text files.

Each person needs to set up an individual account to use it.
Click on the Account Set-up tab for more information.

RefWorks makes use of pop-ups for some of its functions. 

Therefore, you will need to either tell your browser to allow pop-ups from RefWorks, or disable your pop-up blocker while you are using RefWorks.

Here's an online tutorial provided by the company that produces RefWorks:

• It keeps your research more organized by allowing you to store in one place all of the ciations you have gathered from various online indexes/databases
• It provides links back to articles that are full-text in one of the Library's online indexes/databases
• It allows you to attach PDFs of articles to citations stored in RefWorks (Great way to store articles requested from other libraries through interlibrary loan!)
  
• It allows you to create bibliographies/reference lists in a selected citation style (e.g. APA)
• If you use the companion program, Write-N-Cite, it will format your in-text citations as well as your reference list

NOTE:  Although RefWorks is a great program, it is not perfect.  Therefore, some editing may be needed after your bibliography/reference list has been saved as a Word document.
