[Yulpub] RefWorks training

[Katie Bauer]

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, 
http://resources.library.yale.edu/online/viewrecorddetpublic.asp?whatcaseedit=1287

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.

Session I: RefWorks Basics
Date and Time: Oct. 12, 10:30am - 12 noon
Location: Staff Center for Multimedia Learning
An introductory course for those staff with little or no experience with 
bibliographic citation management tools.  This class will cover importing 
and creating new records in RefWorks, managing citations in RefWorks, 
adding value to citations, and using RefWorks with Word to insert citations 
in a paper and to automatically format a bibliography.
Who should attend: Public service staff with little or no knowledge of 
citation management software.

Session 2: Advanced RefWorks
Date and Time: Oct. 12, 1:30pm - 3pm
Location: Staff Center for Multimedia Learning
This class will be aimed at those people with some experience using 
citation management software.  It will cover: customizing a RefWorks 
library, tips to share with faculty for using RefWorks as a teaching tool, 
creating new output styles, and troubleshooting advice.
Who should attend: Public service staff who are comfortable with the basics 
of citation management software.

Since space in the Staff Center for Multimedia Learning is limited, you 
must register for these classes.  To register, send email to
