I've Graduated: Now What?: RefWorks

The BGSU Libraries subscribe to an online citation management system called RefWorks. Use it to save the citations for books, articles, websites, and more to a personal account and easily create notes and bibliographies for your research papers.

RefWorks allows you to:

• Import citations from databases or any website using their browser plugin
• Save them into folders by subject, project or class
• Format them into bibliographies in MLA, APA, Chicago Style, or many other styles.

You can also import citations from EndNote or enter them manually. RefWorks saves links to your research materials online so you can access them from anywhere.

Alumni of institutions that subscribe to RefWorks may retain access to their RefWorks accounts.

Log in to your RefWorks account and update your e mail address.

Change your user type to "Alum."

Be aware that the "Find It!" button, which requires you to log in to library databases with your BGSU username and password, will no longer connect you to full text after your library account is inactive.

If you attend or work at a different university in the future, you may have access to RefWorks through its library. At that point, you will be able to create a new RefWorks account and import your RefWorks database into it if you choose to do so.
