RefWorks 2.0 Export Directions

Connections

  • RefWorks Login page
    • Notice:  On Monday, August 8th, RefWorks will be switching to the RefWorks 2.0 interface.  Users, however, will continue to be able to access the RefWorks Classic interface through December 2011.  Users do not need to do anything to their accounts.  Nothing with the data in the respective RefWorks accounts changes - only the interface changes.  Users simply log-in and will be able to switch back and forth between the two interfaces.  Write-N-Cite has not yet changed and is fully compatible with the 2.0 interface.  Users are strongly encouraged to familiarize themselves with the RefWorks 2.0 interface prior to the end of support of the RefWorks Classic interface (December 2011).  If you have questions, contact the reference staff at refdesk@creighton.edu or (402) 280-5138.  View this preview of RefWorks 2.0.
