Creating a Bibliography

You can insert a single reference or multiple references, and you can insert them in-line or as a bibliography. You can select an out-of-the-box citation style or create your own styles.

To create a bibliography from one or more references:

While viewing a list of citations, select the desired references (or select none to use all references) and select Create Bibliography > Create bibliography.

The Bibliography from ... page appears.

By default, the bibliography appears in the last style you used in RefWorks, but you can select a different citation style.

Select Copy to Clipboard and paste the bibliography as text into your document.

By default, the bibliography appears in the last style you used in RefWorks, but you can select a different citation style.

The administrator for your account can add default styles that will show up under Recent styles. That’s why you may see options there even if this is your first time using RefWorks.

Select Copy to Clipboard and paste the bibliography as text into your document.

RefWorks Add-Ons

It is even easier to add references while working in your document using a RefWorks add-on.

Use Write N Cite or RefWorks Citation Manager while working in Microsoft Word. Use RefWorks for Google Docs to do the same while working in Google Docs. 

All of these connect Microsoft Word or Google docs to your RefWorks account and let you insert citations, create bibliographies and format documents using all the available styles. In the additional resources, there are links to the Knowledge Center, which has more information on these.
