LibGuides: Referencing Software: RefWorks

Referencing software

RefWorks

Coventry University's subscription to RefWorks will end in September 2024.

If you have references saved in RefWorks that you would like to maintain access to, you will need to move them to a different system before the end of September. Instructions for how to transfer your references to other tools are below. The Library is also running a series of drop-in sessions and workshops to support you with this change.

Transferring references from RefWorks
These instructions will help you to transfer your references from RefWorks into Zotero, EndNote or Mendeley.

RefWorks is online software. You can create an account on the RefWorks website.

RefWorks can help you to:

Store, easily organise and manage references from lots of different sources.
Easily create lists of references (or bibliographies) in the correct format for use in your research.
It is compatible with the CU Guide to Referencing in Harvard Style.

Take a look at the Step by Step guide to New RefWorks at the bottom of this page.

EndNote is the reference management software that we recommended to Masters/PhD students and research staff conducting a systematic review.
