    Citation Software

    The library provides access to two citation software products.Citation libraries are transferrable between the two pieces of software, so you can use either or both.

    • RefWorks: Web-based software for managing citations, creating bibliographies and adding citations as you write within Word.
    • EndNote: As with RefWorks, EndNote manages citations, creates bibliographies, and "Cites While You Write" in Word. The main difference is that it is software loaded on your machine.

     Why would you use them? Why wouldn't you use them?

    • Import citations as you're doing research in databases like EBSCOhost or InfoTrac or from Google Scholar.
    • Bring these citations directly into your Word document and the software will format it however you need it!
      • Easily create Works Cited pages.
      • Add in-line citations or footnotes as you write.
      • If you need to change citation styles, it can happen with the click of a button.

    Click the RefWorks and EndNote tabs to find out more about each product.
