Well, a new version of your (and our) favorite bibliographic citation manager is on its way. RefWorks 2.0 will be unveiled on August 22. It will have a new, more intuitive interface but you will still be able to do all the things you've come to rely on. You can preview the new interface by logging on to your account and clicking the "RefWorks 2.0" link. The "classic" version will be supported until December. For more information, you can watch their introductory video here . Not familiar with RefWorks and all it can do for you? Go to the library's RefWorks page and find out for yourself.
