RefWorks Comes to Sweet Briar College

Have you spent far too many hours placing footnotes in multiple formats for
various professors or publishers? Sweat no more!

Sweet Briar College now subscribes to RefWorks. RefWorks is a Web-based
bibliography and database manager that allows users to create their own personal
bibliographies by importing references from text files or online databases.
Students and professors can use these references in writing papers and can
automatically format the paper and the bibliography in seconds!

RefWorks allows you to…

* Organize and create a personal database online – no more index cards to
write out and organize. Everything is done automatically as you import the
reference into RefWorks.

* Format bibliographies and manuscripts in seconds – this saves hours of
typing time and decreases the number of errors in creating tedious
bibliographies. Easily make changes to your paper and reformat in seconds.

* Import references from a variety of databases using the already created
Import Filters.

* Searching your RefWorks database is fast and easy – RefWorks automatically
creates author, descriptor and periodical indexes when importing so you just
click on the word to perform the retrieval. Use Quick Search to search all
fields for the most comprehensive results or Advanced Search to narrow your
search to specific terms and fields.

Another plus - the program is available from anywhere. You may access the
program from anywhere at anytime - no extra charge or tracking hassles.
