RefWorks  

 
What is RefWorks? RefWorks is an online research management, writing and collaboration tool. It is designed to help researchers easily gather, manage, store and share all types of information, as well as generate citations and bibliographies.

Why should you use RefWorks?

• One "click" and you can generate bibliographies in any citation style format. (APA, AMA, MLA and more!)
• Allows you to create & organize your own personal database of references.
• Import your references directly from databases, journals or the library catalog and avoid emailing or the need to save to a USB flashdrive.
  
• Makes collaboration easier during group projects allowing you to share your RefWorks folder of references.
