Campus RefWorks Subscription to End Dec. 18

The University of Arkansas Libraries' subscription to RefWorks will end Dec. 18, after which users will no longer be able to access their accounts. A variety of other citation managers are available to campus, including EndNote Basic, Mendeley and Zotero. Subject librarians are available to help users learn to work with these programs and to transfer citations from RefWorks, and they have authored a Research Guide with tips and tricks.

The availability of free citation managers, coupled with budget constraints, drove the decision to not renew the RefWorks subscription.
