Dont't forget to check the sources that others have cited in the books and articles you find. These can be rich sources of new information!

And don't forget to gather the information you need to cite sources properly as you go through the research process.

Here's how to set up your personal RefWorks account:

NOTE: You have to be on campus to sign up for RefWorks, but once you create an account you can use it from anywhere.

BC has a new tutorial that explains how to use RefWorks with Quest, Lexis-Nexis, and Academic Onefile. We especially recommend viewing this tutorial if you want to learn how to import Quest records into your RefWorks account.

RefWorks is software that allows you to:

• Store and organize citations.
• Download citation information directly from Quest and many article databases.
  
• Create an APA formatted References page in a matter of seconds.
• Insert citations into the body of your paper.
