RefWorks is a bibliographic management service that permits users to create a database of references from search results in online research databases. References can then be used in writing papers. In-text citations and bibliographies are automatically formatted with the click of a button in a citation style of your choosing. RefWorks is available to current Wittenberg faculty, staff and students.
If you plan to set up a new account or access an existing account from an off-campus location, call the reference desk for the Group Code at 937-327-7511.
The methods for getting references from a databases into RefWorks vary from one databases to another. Here are detailed instructions for some common databases.
If you do not see a database vendor listed here, you may find additional database instructions on the Xavier University library web page.
