RefWorks has introduced two new components, RefShare and RefAware.RefAware is a web based current awareness service designed to provide researchers and other members of the academic community with immediate access to new research and publications in their field - all within hours of being posted online. Covering over 8,000 peer-reviewed sources and other non-refereed sources of information, RefAware provides a comprehensive, up-to-the minute picture of today's global research.RefShare provides users with a quick and easy way to share their RefWorks databases. RefShare allows subscribing institutions to make available central, customizable Web pages where users can post their RefWorks databases or folders. The databases are easily accessible from the site; users can also easily share access to this information with anyone via e-mail.
I just signed up for 3 seminars – RefWorks Advanced Features; RefShare and RefAware, and thought that some of you might like to try the seminars as well. http://refworks.com/content/webinars/default.asp#RefShare will give you more information, and registration details.
McDermott Library provides free access to RefWorks through the library’s home page.Create your account at http://www.utdallas.edu/library/resources/refworks/index.htm (be sure to use you UTD email address), then use RefWorks to import citations, manage citations in folders, format them within your papers and create instant bibliographies.
RefWorks provides easy to follow tutorials, a Quick Start Guide and HELP screens. If you need help getting started, you can call me at 972-883-2627, or email me at carol.oshel@utdallas.edu, or contact RefWorks at support@refworks.com or 775-327-4105.
