RefWorks 2.0
Just logged into the beta version of RefWorks 2.0 for the first time. Not noticing a new interface? That’s because RefWorks 2.0 is in beta–traditional RefWorks is running side-by-side and you can chose either version. Traditional RefWorks is still the default.
For simple functions like importing references and filing them, it seems pretty similar to regular RefWorks. So far, I’m seeing that there may be problems with Internet Explorer 8 and RefWorks, so if you’re going to try RefWorks 2.0, use Firefox.
Want to try RefWorks 2.0? Just click on the link on the upper right side of the initial screen (see the screenshot above).
We’re working on informing everyone about the new version of RefWorks coming down the pike. Stay tuned!
