Library's Refworks Citation Manager to Be Discontinued
Campus Community Update #304
Because of budgetary constraints, the RefWorks citation manager database will be discontinued as of June 30, 2018.
We have carefully reviewed the pros and cons of the library’s site license and have concluded that the high cost of the annual subscription can no longer be justified when there are other free or low cost citation management programs available that are as good or better than RefWorks.
If you currently have a RefWorks account/database and wish to continue to maintain your citations, you must migrate your citations to a different citation manager by June 30.
A few of the more popular, free citation managers are:
| Title | Instructions |
|---|---|
| EndNote Web | Migration instructions for EndNote Web |
| Mendeley | Migration instructions for Mendeley |
| Zotero | Migration instructions for Zotero |
There are many other citation managers also available to choose from. A current list is found here.
