RefWorks is a reference management service that supports the citation management needs of students and faculty. With an improved user experience, full-text management, and collaboration features, RefWorks supports a more efficient and reliable process for producing your research papers. For video tutorials, see RefWorks' YouTube channel. For new features, see RefWorks' release notes page
