Viewing, sorting and printing references




You can view all your references or just a folder of references
from the ‘View’ area…..but did you know that you can change how
you look at the references that you select from the view menu by
using the ‘Change View:’ drop down menu? By default you see
the standard view. What does the Standard View mean? It means
that the ‘Standard View’ displays your references in a condensed
manner, showing only the title, authors and source (periodical
name, or publisher, publication year, etc).
Viewing, sorting and printing references




  There are 3 views by default:
  Standard View, One Line Cite
  View and Full View.

One Line Cite View is used when writing a paper
and you want to copy temporary citation
placeholders into your document for formatting
later. This is the ‘Cite’ Button.
Viewing, sorting and printing references




                The Full View shows you all the data in
                each reference. Only the fields of
                information that have data in them are
                displayed (you can view all the empty
                fields in the ‘Edit’ mode of the reference).

     In addition to the
     three views that
     RefWorks gives you,
     you can add 3 more,
     selecting them from a
     list of output styles.
     Go to ‘Customize’.
Viewing, sorting and printing references




In addition to setting output styles (which we’ll get into in
a minute) you can also select the number of references to
display on each ‘page’. One word of caution – if you
select a large number of references to display per page
AND you have your default display set to ‘Full View’ it
may take a bit of time to load pages within RefWorks.
This is because of the amount of data being displayed.
Viewing, sorting and printing references




Back to selecting output styles to view records. There are 3 drop downs to
select from. The drop downs all display the complete output style list (including
any custom output styles you create). Simply choose 3 styles (or less – you do
not have to use all three choices) that you want to use to view your references.
Save the selections.

  Go to ‘View’, ‘All References’.

                         Viewing your references using an output style is an
                         excellent way of seeing how your bibliography or
                         reference list will appear when formatted.




NOTE: The view you choose in the ‘Change View:’ drop down will remain as the
default view until you change it to another view.

      Let’s return to the Standard View.

      Another way to change how you look at
      your references is to sort them.
