What is RefWorks [1]?

RefWorks [1] is a web-based bibliographic software package that enables you to:

• Organize your research
• Create a bibliography in a variety of citation styles, [2] including APA, MLA and Chicago
• Import references from many data sources
• Create bibliographies in different document formats (Word, RTF, HTML, etc.)
• Include citations while you write your paper
• Being web-based means no software to download and update, and you can access your personal account from any computer connected to the internet.

Instructions

• RefWorks Quick Start Guide [3] (PDF)
• Installing Write-N-Cite for Off-Campus Use (a one-time set up of the WNC Proxy Configuration Utility) [4]
• Converting from EndNote (and other programs) to RefWorks [5]
• Tutorials [6]
