Zotero [zoh-TAIR-oh] is a free, easy-to-use Firefox extension that helps you collect, manage, and cite your research sources.
RefWorks allows users to quickly and easily create a database of citations and export them in a variety of formats (e.g. APA, MLA, etc.). Citations can be entered directly into RefWorks or easily imported from other library databases. RefWorks users must register for an account - the registration process must be completed on campus. For assistance with RefWorks, take the online tutorial or call the Information/Reference Desk at 316-2265 if you have any further questions.
