For AAU researchers

Reference management

With a reference tool you can manage and organize your references. It can both serve as a personal library and it can help you ensure correct citations and bibliography, when writing. There are several different reference tools. Through the University Library, you have access to RefWorks.

In RefWorks you can keep track of the references you need in your research. With just a few clicks, you can insert correct references so that they follow your chosen reference style, and your bibliography is automatically created in your documents.  

Refworks can be used both when you work alone or collaborate with others. RefWorks works in both Office Word and Google Docs. 

To get started with RefWorks, you need to create your own RefWorks account. Go to refworks.proquest.com and remember to use your AAU email when you create your account.  

A good workflow with RefWorks

To get the most out of RefWorks, it is a good idea to find out how to incorporate RefWorks into your research process in a good way. These YouTube intro videos can give you an idea of how you can work with RefWorks. 

You can also attend one of our RefWorks intro courses, where we give an introduction to the tool and how you can work with it.  
 

AAU ALUMNI 

When you are no longer employed at AAU, you can continue to use Refworks as long as AAU has a subscription to the programme. However, it's a good idea to change your email associated with your account to a private address so that you can still receive emails from RefWorks.
