What is RefWorks?

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

• Easily import references from electronic databases, the UNT library catalog, text files, websites and more into your account
• Quickly create reference lists for papers and projects in the citation style of your choice
• Share references with colleagues

RefWorks is provided by the Libraries to the UNT community free of charge, but to create an account for the first time an access code is needed. Please contact our AskUs service at 940-565-3245 or email AskUs@unt.edu using your UNT email address to receive the code.

See the information below to start using your RefWorks account, provided to all students, faculty and staff by the UNT Libraries. Visit the RefWorks Library Guide for video tutorials and instructions for basic and advanced functions.

If the video below is gray, sign into Microsoft Stream with your UNT email address and EUID password.

There are a number of free reference managers if RefWorks is not a good fit for your work style. Visit the Reference Managers library guide to learn more about Zotero, Mendeley, EndNote Basic, and other free reference managers.

The UNT Writing Center provides Graduate Tutoring to help you with your thesis, dissertation, or research papers. Make an appointment to get assistance with proofreading, citing, and writing strategies and techniques.            .
