RefWorks Classic says, “Farewell forever”; RefWorks 2.0 says, “Oh, were you still here?”

Attention all you old schoolers out there: RefWorks Classic has at last bid its final adieu! After months of hanging around as an optional click back into familiarity, POOF! It has gone off to sunnier climes.

Have no fear! RefWorks 2.0, which has been the default since last summer, is still there to gather, organize, store, and share all types of your reference information and is just waiting to instantly generate your citations and bibliographies.  Watch the video below to discover where all your favorite features have gone off to, and don’t be shy about discovering the new ones. Can I just say, “drag and  drop?” Yes, please!

Now to all of you who I can hear… “Say what now? Ref….Woooorks?”  If you have no idea what I’m talking about, it is your lucky day! Your information gathering will never be the same again. RefWorks is an online research management, writing, and collaboration tool that will allow you to easily save your citations as you do your research, which will allow you to not only find them again, but will format them for you to instantly generate your citations and bibliographies.

RefWorks has its own channel on YouTube and is a great way to get started.  Also, UST libraries has a very helpful guide (in the process of being updated for the new interface), and RefWorks offers its own guide. And of course, our super duper librarian friends are never too far away!
