  • Need a research refresher? Been out of school for a few years and your research skills feel a little rusty? Join us at our research skills refresher workshop.
  • Did you notice that the UC Libraries homepage looks a little different? Want to learn the ins-and-outs of our new search bar? Get all your questions answered at our Secrets of OneSearch workshop.

RefWorks is leaving…have you met Zotero? 

Posted on by

UC Libraries’ subscription to RefWorks is ending in May 2025 due to low usage and increasing costs. While UC Libraries’ subscription to RefWorks is ending, we support other citation managers such as Zotero and EndNote. 

If you want to learn more about Zotero, register for the “Getting to Know Zotero” workshop hosted in CECH Library on April 15 at 12:30pm (you can bring your lunch!).  

Zotero is a free, open source citation management software with both a desktop application and web platform. It has awesome features such as Microsoft Word integration, built-in PDF reader, and group libraries. Come to the workshop to see a demo, set up your Zotero, and test out its capabilities!
