Empower is a good general tutorial on conducting research--it is especially helpful for students new to research, or students new to the university.

Where to Start

What is RefWorks?

RefWorks is an online research management, writing and collaboration tool.  It is designed to help researchers easily gather, manage, store and share all types of information, as well as generate citations and bibliographies.

If you need to manage information for any reason, whether it is for writing, research or collaboration, RefWorks is the perfect tool. 

  • Obtaining a RefWorks Account
    Use the "sign up for an individual account" link
  • Accessing RefWorks Outside the Library
    When accessing RefWorks from outside the library's website (going directly to http://www.refworks.com) you will need the university's group code--after clicking the link above, you will be asked to sign in with your university user name and password; after signing in, you will find the group code listed under RefWorks.

Applications

Write-N-Cite

With Write-N-Cite, you can cite references in a manuscript with the click of a button. The abbreviated version can be set to Always on top so that it stays in place as you are typing your manuscript and generating your bibliography. The utility installs a Write-N-Cite icon on your desktop as well as a choice in the "Add-in" section of Word (Windows users only).

More Applications

RefGrab-It

This software works with your browser to capture bibliographic information from web pages giving you the option to import that data into your RefWorks account.
