The RefWorks Environment

The lessons in this module demonstrate how to create a RefWorks account and showcases the Welcome Screen. It also demonstrates how to create and delete folders.

To use RefWorks, sign up for a user account on campus with a username and password of your choosing. Soon after you sign up for an account, you will receive a Subscriber Group Code through the email you supplied when you registered. You need the Subscriber Group Code to access RefWorks from off campus.

Before you begin entering references, think about how you want them organized — by topic, by course code or course name? RefWorks allows you to create folders to organize references. The same references may reside in more than one folder. However, folders may not be stored within folders. While you may change folder names and create more folders at any time, it is still important to have a basic organization scheme.
