Migrate Your RefWorks Account

Tue. Jun. 20, 2023

As of August 11 we will no longer be subscribing to the RefWorks reference management platform. This move comes alongside a steady decline in the Refworks user base combined with increased quality and popularity of open-source options such as Zotero.

As a result, users will no longer have access to their UWinnipeg RefWorks account. If you have information and stored citations that you would like to continue to access, please save these to a text file or migrate them to another reference management system by that date. A video which demonstrates how to export from RefWorks to Zotero is available on the Library’s Youtube page.

Library staff can assist if you have questions or need help with migrating your information to a different platform - contact reference@uwinnipeg.ca.
