The following UFV databases allow you to save references to a text file that can then be imported into your RefWorks account. 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 save your references in a text file.
  4. Log in to RefWorks.
  5. Select References→Import from the tool bar.
  6. Select the data source and, if necessary, the database.
  7. Browse to find the file you saved earlier, then click "Import." The references should appear in the "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.
