RefWorks Workshops at Gelman
To register for any of these workshops, please RSVP to refworks@gelman.gwu.edu
Refworks is an online tool for organizing your research and creating bibliographies, brought to you by the Gelman Library. RefWorks allows you to store and file your references in different folders, add research notes or other information, and format your paper, dissertation, or other research project with the click of a button. Additionally, because RefWorks is an online tool, you have access to your account from any computer and you can easily locate the items using the Find-It button!

Sunday – Thursday, Oct. 21-25 open 24-hours*
