Writing with RefWorks

New Improvements

Enhancements to Assist Systematic Reviews

➢ Projects allows the user to create and manage separate reference collections. A researcher can have multiple projects and is able to select which project is used when you use RefWorks Citation Manager to write a document. Projects can be shared with other RefWorks users for easy collaboration.

Publicly share folders using a public URL. The contents of folders and sub-folders can be shared with people who do not have a RefWorks account.

Tab delimited export – Users can export all their citations to a Tab Delimited format (.tsv) so they can view their citations in Excel.

View, organize, and manage thousands of citations collaboratively – RefWorks now displays up to 2,000 references on a single page to help with literature and systematic reviews.

Improved de-duplication process – Improvements were made to deliver a clearer user experience for reviewing and identifying duplicates. By the end of 2019 additional improvements will be made for faster deduplication of more references simultaneously.

Table View – A sortable view of references to make systematic reviews easier.
