Exporting References from Library Catalog
Exporting citations from the library's catalog databases into RefWorks can be completed in a few simple steps. Be sure to log in to RefWorks prior to following these directions. We recommend viewing the Exporting References tutorial to see a demonstration of this process.
1. Select the item you would like to export.
2. Select "RefWorks" on the "Send to" menu.
3. Select "Yes, export to the newest version of RefWorks."
4. Select the folder you would like to export the record to.
5. To add the full text of the document to the record, select the pencil icon in the upper right hand corner of the item detail box.
If you have not already saved the PDF to your computer, you will need to do that prior to the next step. To save the PDF from the library's catalog database, use the "View Online" menu to link to the full-text, if available.
When you reach the full-text, download the file to your computer. We recommend saving the file by the authors last name.
6. Attach the PDF by selecting "Add an Attachment."
You will know the file is attaching when you see the blue progress bar. Please note, this process can take up to several minutes.
