Using RefWorks add-ons you can insert citations directly into your text document, and automatically create a bibliography with the citaiton style of your choice. The add-ons are Write-N-Cite for Microsoft Office Word (up to 2013, desktop), Citation Manager (Word 2016 and above, and Word Online) and Cite in Google Docs. You can install the add-ons via RefWorks, and check RefWorks pages to find the right writing tool for your operating system and version of Microsoft Word.
The add-ons don't support institutional login. You can, however, easily create an alternate password so you can login with a username. See instructions from Creating a RefWorks account page.
You can add your citations from your RefWorks account straight into your Word document by using the Write-N-Cite add-on. You can install it to your computer; see instructions below. The add-on is installed on Uniarts IT classroom computers, and on Uniarts work computers you can enable the add-on without installing it.
Write-N-Cite is not available on Office 365.
RefWorks Citation Manager is an add-on compatible with Word 2016, and you can download it from MS shop. See videos about Citation Manager on this page.
If you have a Uniarts computer, Write-N-Cite is already installed, but you have to enable it in Word.
The first time you login to Write-N-Cite, it automatically synchronizes with your RefWorks account. If and when you edit or add citations to your account while Word is running, click Sync My Database, so that all changes will be updated in Write-N-Cite as well.
You can import citations from your RefWorks account and insert them to your document as in-text citations or footnotes. You can edit the citation style and create a bibliography.
The RefWorks tab (= Write-N-Cite) in Word includes the tools for in-text and footnote citations and for creating bibliographies. In in-text citations all you have to do is place the cursor where you want the citation and use the Insert citation option. After your work is complete, add a bibliography from Bibliography Options > Insert bibliography. The bibliography will include only the citations you have added to your text using the add-on.

If you want to insert a footnote, choose "Make Footnote" when inserting a reference:
Add page numbers to an in-text citation by editing it in Write-N-Cite, not directly in the text. Choose the citation, and double-click or right-click it and choose "Edit Citation":

There are thousands of citations styles available in RefWorks, but you need to activate them separately in Write-N-CIte.
RefWorks Citation Manager is a Word 2016 and Word Online compatible add-on, which you can use instead of Write-N-Cite. The add-on is installed from Microsoft Store. If you want to add the add-on to a laptop managed by Uniarts, please contact the IT help: help@uniarts.fi.
See instructions from RefWorks pages on how to use Citation Manager, or see the video below.
With Cite in Google Docs add-on you can insert your citations straight into Google Docs files.
When you cite a work, place the mouse pointer on the correct citation in the RefWorks panel and click the Cite this button. The citation appears where the cursor is. At the same time the bibliography updates automatically.
