What is RefWorks?
What is a citation? A
citation....
- describes a book, journal article, website, or other published item;
- gives credit to the originator of an idea, thus preventing plagiarism;
- enables the reader to retrieve the item you refer to;
- includes the author, title, source (publisher and place of publication or URL), and date.
A citation manager is a tool which helps you to store, organize and output your citations in the format you prefer. An organized list of citations is called a bibliography.
RefWorks is easy-to-use software that is web based and available to
all SHU users.
RefWorks allows you to import references from the Library's many electronic databases and the library's catalog. You can conveniently compile a list of sources you intend to
read--as you identify them--and save the list online. You can also grab references from web pages and format citations while you write your paper. You can share your lists with other users.
