Getting Started with RefWorks
RefWorks is a web-based program that allows you to create your own personal database of references. Users can import references from a search performed in an online database automatically, or enter references manually. RefWorks also interfaces directly with Word, making it easy to import citations and incorporate them into your writing as properly formatted footnotes or in-text citations according to the writing style of your choice (MLA, APA, and hundreds others). RefWorks works best using the Internet Explorer Web browser.
