RefWorks
Working on a dissertation, report, literature review or anything else that requires references and wishing you had a better way to organise them? Then RefWorks is for you! Create your own personal database of references by importing them from online databases, saved text files or other reference management software, then write your paper and insert your references where you need them as you go. Finally, create your bibliography quickly and easily using the information from your reference database.
