RefWorks

Access to the RefWorks site license is provided via a cost sharing effort.
RefWorks Training
Both training sessions will be video conferenced between sites in Newark, New Brunswick, and Camden. So, please register for the room of your choice, and if need be, we will arrange for overflow rooms as space is limited in these three rooms. However, note that both sessions will also be multicast live from RU-iptv as well as archived for Video on Demand (VoD) viewing (for 60 days) after the presentation. RU-iptv should be viewable from any hardwired network jack in labs or in offices (test yours by verifying that you can see RU-iptv now. In addition, VoD should be viewable from any network connection on or off campus with sufficient bandwidth.
