Fitchburg State offers RefWorks free to students and faculty.
Both offer the same level of convenience and benefit for managing your citations. If you are new to RefWorks, then create a new account using the New RefWorks product. If you are using Legacy RefWorks, you may continue to use it, and we recommend if you are currently working on a project or paper continuing into next semester, to continue using the Legacy version. After your project is complete, you should be migrating your information over to the New Refworks. A user guide is available for Legacy RefWorks.
