RefWorks is a web-based bibliographic reference manager that can be accessed from any Mac or PC computer on or off campus. Over the last few months ProQuest has launched its new and improved RefWorks® reference management platform, simplifying and improving research and collaboration workflows. Refworks 3 has a more modern interface making it easier to import to your library, better PDF handling and is now compatible with Microsoft Word 2016 and Google Docs.
