This coming Fall the current RefWorks interface will be replaced with what is being called RefWorks 2.0. The next time you login to your RefWorks account you’ll see a new RefWorks 2.0 link on the main toolbar in the upper right corner of the page. Clicking on that will display the new interface.  Once you’re in the new interface, you can click “RefWorks Classic” to reload the old.  The data in your account is not affected when you switch back and forth. Through the Spring and Summer, you can continue to use Classic or switch to the new interface.

RefWorks 2.0 is designed to be easier and more efficient for its users with:

•     a cleaner, more intuitive design

•     tabbed functions

•     improved menu navigation

•     quick access toolbar
