RefWorks  

RefWorks is a web-based bibliographic reference manager.

What that means:

1. Instead of keeping your references on bits of paper, in your email or in word documents scattered across files in your computer, you can build an online database of all your sources that can be accessed from anywhere over the internet.

2. You can import references directly from databases, organize them and then share them with others. 

3. You can insert references from your database into papers or use it to create bibliographies in many different citation styles.
