• 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.
