RefWorks

What is Refworks?

RefWorks is a web-based personal database/citation manager that will allow you to:

• Create your own databases of citations by importing references from the WSU Library Catalog and WSU Databases or entering them using a template.
• Automatically generate bibliographies in all major styles (MLA, APA, Turabian, Chicago, etc.).
• Format your paper and footnotes/endnotes in all major styles.
• And then export them as several document types (Word, RTF, HTML, etc.).
• Store your sources for future research.
