      Description

Many researchers use bibliographical software to organize their 
citations and to write research papers. Using bibliographical software, 
a user can create his personal bibliographical databases, search various 
online catalogs, import search results from different online databases, 
create general and subject bibliographies, and write a paper with the 
function of "cite while you write." Two types of bibliographical 
software programs will be introduced in this workshop: EndNote X1 and 
RefWorks. EndNote X1 is a local program which a user installs on his 
personal computer. RefWorks is an online program for users to subscribe.

Participants will learn to use EndNote X1 during the workshop. Features 
of RefWorks will be demonstrated by the workshop instruction. The 
benefits a librarian will gain from using the programs will also be 
discussed during the workshop.


      Meal

Light snacks will be provided.
