The Yale University Library has begun a one year pilot program for
supporting RefWorks, a software tool for managing bibliographic
citations. You can try RefWorks now,

To introduce staff to RefWorks, the SQI Instruction and Reference Groups
will co-sponsor two training sessions for library public service staff on
October 12, to be given by a RefWorks trainer, Linda Bush. Both
sessions will be held in the Staff Center for Multimedia Learning.

<b>Session 2: Advanced RefWorks<br>
