What is RefWorks?
![]()
RefWorks is an online "citation manager" that helps you keep track of citations you gather during research. It is free to all JHU users, utilizing the JHED ID as a login. It also works with Word, allowing you to embed references as you write.
For details, see the RefWorks guide.
