What is RefWorks?

     Refworks is a citation management software program, paid for by the Loyola University Libraries. RefWorks collects stores and organizes citations from books, articles, web sites and other sources. It automatically converts citations into properly formatted bibliographies. A multitude of citation styles are offered including MLA, APA and Chicago Style. Citations can be exported automatically from many Loyola databases.

     In addition, you can search Pegasus, Loyola's online catalog from within Refworks. Refworks also converts citations from other bibliographic management systems such as Endnote and Reference Manager. All Loyola undergraduate and graduate students, faculty and staff may set up their own personal accounts. RefWorks is especially convenient, as all of the information is stored online, which allows users to access the information from any computer hooked up to the internet.

     RefWorks also offers users the ability to set up multiple accounts. This can be used to share citations for group or research projects, creating reading lists for classes, or collaborations.

 

Creating An Account

If you are logging in from off-campus, you will either be redirected to the Flagship proxy server, or you will need to enter the group code for Loyola University. If you are logging in while on campus, this information will automatically be supplied. The Flagship proxy server can be accessed from https://flagship.luc.edu/login.

When first creating an account, click on “Sign up for an Individual Account,” and then fill in all fields completely.
