How to Access RefWorks from Off Campus

1.  Go to http://www.refworks.com/refworks

2.  At the RefWorks Login Center, select the Remote Access tab.  Enter the Group Code RWUWisSuperior and select Go To Login.  (Please note that the group code is case sensitive.)

3.  At the next screen, select Sign Up for an Individual Account.

4.  Fill in all fields to create your individual account.  For convenience, I used my UWS username and password as my RefWorks login name and password.

5.  When you reach the Congratulations page, you have successfully created your account.  The tutorial will help you learn how to use RefWorks.  To use Write-N-Cite, select Tools from the toolbar at the top of the screen, then Write-N-Cite.  This will take you to a page where you can download and install Write-N-Cite.  You'll note the instructions for using Write-N-Cite are on the page you see below.

6.  For subsequent logins to RefWorks, browse to http://www.refworks.com/refworks, enter the Group Code RWUWisSuperior on the Remote Access tab, then enter your RefWorks login name and password on the next screen.
