ProQuest RefWorks is a reference management tool which supports you to collect, manage and organise research papers and documents. You can read, annotate, organise, and cite your research as well as collaborate with friends and colleagues by sharing collections. Everyone at Hallam is entitled to a RefWorks account which you can continue to use after you complete your studies. The Referencing guide has detailed information and guidance on using RefWorks.
