The University of Iowa Libraries has a site license to RefWorks!
RefWorks is a web-based citation management and bibliography tool. It can help you to efficiently store, organize, and share citations and easily format them for papers and bibliographies.
The University of Iowa Libraries no longer provides formal support for EndNote. The EndNote Support & Services page supplies a variety of filters and connection files and includes FAQs, tip sheets, and technical support contact information.
