General Information Needed to Use RefWorks at UNMC

Accessing RefWorks:

Click here to access RefWorks from on-campus computers. (If you use this link from off-campus you will have to login with your UNMC NetID and your communications with RefWorks' servers will be a bit slower.)
For fastest access from off-campus computers go to http://www.refworks.com and log in with UNMC's group code.

RefWorks Training Available:

RefWorks training is most effective when done in a one-on-one setting or when a hands-on class or demonstration is arranged for individuals with similar interests. Contact Cindy Schmidt at cmschmidt@unmc.edu or 559-7077 to make arrangements.
If you would prefer a non-customized, hands-on training experience, visit http://www.unmc.edu/library/classreg.htm to view a list of scheduled classes open to all UNMC employees and students.

What is RefWorks?

RefWorks is an online reference management tool.
You can create one or more personal RefWorks accounts for free through UNMC's RefWorks license.
After searching PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO or another literature database, store your search results in your RefWorks account.
Use your RefWorks account to get rid of duplicate references, organize, take notes on, or share your references.
When writing research papers, you can use RefWorks' tools to quickly insert in-text citations. Formatted in-text citations and bibliographies are just a couple clicks away. You can edit your work and use RefWorks to re-number or re-sort your citations and bibliography for you.
