Editor's Notes
- They are always called reference management tools but nowadays they do a lot more than passively store references as we’ll see
- A wide range of tools out there and your choice may depend on what you want to be able to do with it. Open University provides a text page plus a short (4 screen) activity to work through to consider Wikipedia page is kept up to date – provides information in table form The columns are: Name / Developer / First release / latest stable release date / latest stable version / cost / free or not / license
- https://padlet.com/kathy_chaney/ReferenceManagement Info gleaned re accessibility – RefMe is not ‘fully’ accessible with screenreaders, but is considered good for dyslexia, perhaps because it is essentially simple to use; Zotero is better (ie more accessible for screen readers) than Mendeley but is less intuitive in its own design.
- RefWorks is the only one paid for and supported by CCCU through the Library. RefWorks has been updated by its creators, ProQuest. We are running the new one alongside the old Legacy version but recommend you start with the new one.
- Start by logging in and then find the access point for RefWorks – it is RefWorks ProQuest – the new version, with the blue logo
- Make sure you go through LibrarySearch to get there so that the PC already knows you are entitled to create an account and use your CCCU email address
- Deliberately using the terms Importing /Exporting as those are the terms the databases often use for that function – Also show GoogleScholar Show how to add a record manually, using the template Show how to create folders and then assign documents; highlight that items can be in multiple folders if required, e.g. by subject, by section of thesis or assignment topic, by database from which it was retrieved, etc. Show how to view and edit records, then get final warning before moving on… on to next slide for adding the pdf
- Tagging can be extremely helpful for locating items quickly – the tags can be whatever you want, e.g. I’ve used quotable; excellent; introduction, etc Any questions before we look at creating reference lists
- US based so tends to use the word bibliography where we might use reference list Choose Copyright as my folder to show
- Using Write-N-Cite from the CCCU network When write-n-cite opens, find the appropriate references via View / Folder / Cowjumpthesis It will show at the top of the Write-N-Cite list if it can see a Word document already open – if not, open the relevant word doc When you create the bibliography you can tell it what style to use If, after creating the bibliography, you want to go back to the paper and add some more references, you can and re-run the Create bibliography
