RefWorks in 15 Minutes

While the ideal way to teach users the basic features of RefWorks is to conduct 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 30-minute session, you'll rapidly learn: 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.

Four Ways to Create Bibliographies in RW

In this session you'll learn the four ways to create bibliographies in RefWorks:

1)      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.
2)      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.
3)      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.
4)      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.
