RefWorks Citation Manager (RCM) is an upgraded version of the Word extension Write-N-Cite and opens a small version of RefWorks inside your Microsoft Word Document.
Here are some resources to get started with using RCM from RefWorks.
Save to RefWorks is a browser bookmark that will open a popup RefWorks webpage when you click it on a reference you would like to save. It will prefill in some of the data, but otherwise must be filled in manually.
To add Save to RefWorks, you can find it under the "Tools" tab in RefWorks, when you click on your account name.
This installation is for Microsoft Word 2016 or newer. If you have an older version of Word, please use Write-N-Cite.
