What is RefWorks?

RefWorks is a web-based reference manager that allows you to create your own personal database of references and documents for both academic and personal use. With RefWorks you can:

• Easily import references from electronic databases, the UNT library catalog, websites, other reference managers, and more into your account
• Quickly create reference lists/bibliographies for papers and projects in the citation style of your choice
• Store, read and annotate documents

See the Introduction to RefWorks handout below to get started with your account. To learn about the basic and advanced functions, view the RefWorks video tutorials.

Tips for Using RefWorks

Off-Campus Use 

If you are using RefWorks somewhere other than the UNT campus, you can still use your RefWorks account. Simply enter your UNT email address and the password you created for the account.

Browsers 

RefWorks works best with Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge - avoid using Internet Explorer. If you're having problems with RefWorks, try switching to a different browser.

Pop-ups

RefWorks functions with the use of some pop-ups. Be sure to turn off your pop-up blocker, or add RefWorks as an exception to the blocker.

The UNT Libraries provide print manuals and online style guides to assist you in correctly formatting papers and citing references. The links below take you to manuals and guides for the major citation styles. To see all styles available, visit the Citations and Style Guides webpage.
