RefWorks 2.0!
RefWorks is a web-based citation and bibligraphy tool that is available to students, faculty, and staff at participating schools. In Canada, most institutions subscribe to RefWorks through Scholars Portal. This guide will walk you through all of the basic functionalities RefWorks offers, as well as some new features and troubleshooting tips.
At some schools, users will require a group code to login when working off-campus.
The group code is emailed to you when you sign up for your account. If you no longer have that email, you should be able to find it through your library's website.
If you cannot find it, contact refworks.support@scholarsportal.info from your institutional email address.
Setting Up a Refworks Account
Visit http://refworks.scholarsportal.info and click "Sign up for an Individual Account."
If you are on-campus, RefWorks will detect which school you are associated with. If you are off-campus, you will either need to go through a proxy or use your school's group code in order to create an account. Many schools have their group code listed on their library website, either openly or behind a proxy. If you can't find your groupcode, email refworks.support@scholarsportal.info from your institutional email account.
Fill in the required fields and submit your information. You will be able to access your account right away, and should receive ane-mail confirmation with your username, password, and groupcode.
Save this email in case you forget your password!
