Citation Styles

Florida Gulf Coast University's access to RefWorks, including the legacy and “new” platforms, will end on December 31, 2020. Users with active RefWorks accounts must migrate their citations to a new citation management software before this date.

Alternative citation management tools are available to FGCU users at no charge, including EndNote Basic, Zotero and Mendeley.

Exporting Refworks Citations

Effective December 31, 2020, FGCU Library will no longer have access to RefWorks.  Users must export references from their RefWorks account and into another citation manager including Endnote Basic, Zotero, or Mendeley.

If you need assistance exporting references from RefWorks, contact your subject librarian or Ask Us.
