RefWorks in 15 Minutes

While the ideal way to teach the basic features of RefWorks is to participate in a full training session, we realize that in some situations you may have only a few minutes to demonstrate the power of RefWorks. During this session, you'll rapidly learn how to demonstrate: how to create an account; direct export citations from two databases; create a folder; create a bibliography from a list of citations; and create a bibliography using Write-N-Cite. Designed for people who will be conducting RefWorks training locally.

Four Ways to Create Bibliographies in RW

In this 60-minute session you’ll learn the different ways to create bibliographies and format papers using RefWorks:

  • Write-N-Cite utility (for use with Microsoft Word only): We will discuss what's new in Write-N-Cite, how to install it, and how to use it to insert citations and create bibliographies in your documents - including while working offline.
  • One Line/Cite View: This method does not require downloading a plug-in, as does Write-N-Cite. This method can be used to create bibliographies with in-text citations in just about any word processing program.
  • Manual: This also does not require downloading a plug-in, and it too works with just about any word processing program. You can also insert in-text citations in a manuscript offline with this method.
  • Format a Bibliography from a List of References: Any folder or list of citations can be quickly formatted into any of the 1,300-plus bibliographic styles in RefWorks.

Attendees should have a basic knowledge of RefWorks functionality.
