The following UFV databases support direct export, which allows you to mark items in a database and save them to your RefWorks account. If direct export does not work, try importing your references as a text file. Instructions for each database vendor are provided below, but the basic steps are the same for each of them:

1. Search the database, and mark the items you want to export.
2. Select the export function (may be linked to print, save, or email functions) in the database.
3. Choose the RefWorks option (may also be labelled "Citation Manager") and export.
4. Log in to RefWorks if prompted; references should appear in "Last Imported" folder.

RefWorks maintains a complete list of databases that support EITHER the direct export function or the importing via a text file method.
