Anyone who needs to keep track of what they are reading and then cite these sources in their own work.  This workshop is an introduction to RefWorks – software which runs in your Web browser and helps you manage publication references.  It is aimed specifically at scientists - as referencing styles differ between subject disciplines.

What will it cover?

RefWorks can save you a lot of time by helping you to organise, manage and cite references

What will it cover?

  • How to create a RefWorks account and download the Word toolbar, for use on and off campus.
  • How to input references manually, from a bibliographic database, from the library catalogue, and how to import a website reference.
  • How to create a bibliography in Word, using the Write'N'Cite toolbar.
  • How to create an independent bibliography.

Do I need to do anything to prepare?

It would be useful for you to bring a couple of sample references along with you, and to find out what reference style (e.g. Harvard) your subject area uses.
