RefWorks is web-based referencing software that enables you to:

• Organize your research
• Include citations while you write your paper
• Import references from many data sources
• Create bibliographies (reference lists)

RefWorks has advantages over EndNote. It is available on the Internet and does not require the installation of software. RefWorks is recommended for undergraduate students especially for team based project reports.

Training will be held in the Dorothy Hill Physical Sciences and Engineering Library: Monday 20 April, 2-3pm

Bookings can be made online, however, you can also come to this workshop without booking! Please ask at the Information Desk in the Library if any queries.
