 Hi, my name is Russell. I'm a librarian at the University of Alabama. This video will explain how to use RefWorks, an online tool that manages and organizes the citations for your research. Let's start by going to the library's homepage and selecting the Research Tools tab. Look for the Citation Manager's icon and click on RefWorks. Then, select the button that says Access New RefWorks. On the login page, go to the dropdown arrow next to Use Login for My Institution and search for the University of Alabama. Clicking this will redirect you to your MyBama login. Sign in with your username and password and you'll enter RefWorks. In RefWorks, you have the ability to organize your research sources in a way that makes sense to you. Let's start by uploading a source. You can either click the plus icon or drag and drop a file directly into RefWorks. Another option for directly adding sources is through databases like Scout. In the record of an article, for instance, select the Export tool and choose Direct Export to RefWorks. Then, click Save. When choosing which version to export to, always pick the new RefWorks. Next, hit Continue and then the research article will be added to your library. Once you have a couple different sources uploaded, you can move them into folders so that they are arranged in a certain way, like by theme or date. If you want to be even more detailed in your organizing, you can also assign tags to specific sources. If you have a lot of sources uploaded and folders and tags aren't enough to keep everything organized, you can move sources to different projects instead. This is especially helpful for large writing assignments. Now that I've uploaded and organized my sources, it's time to generate citations. Instead of spending time meticulously crafting a bibliography, RefWorks automates that process for you within seconds. Select the sources you want to cite and choose Create Bibliography. You can customize which citation style you prefer to format that bibliography to. There's also a tool called Quick Site where you can copy and paste in-text citations as well. Lastly, you have the ability to export your references to different citation managers like Endknown or Mendeley. Select Share and then Export References. You can choose which sources you would like to export in addition to the file format. That's all for now. Thanks for watching! If you have further questions on using RefWorks, you can email me at rtpeterson1.ua.edu or visit ask.lib.ua.edu to ask a librarian.
