Citation Solutions
Find a bunch of books you like in the library catalogue and can't figure out how to keep them together? Well, now you can send library catalogue records right to RefWorks, where you can keep track of citations. Refworks will even help you build a bibliography! Not sure how to use RefWorks, come talk to a librarian! For more info, check out our blog piece:

RefWorks is great if the books are available for RefWorks. Sometimes they aren't, so you'd have to do it manually...
OR, there's also other websites you can use out there to auto format your bibliography entries in MLA and APA or Chicago formats. You can therefore export your RefWorks ones, and the books you're missing citations for, use these sites to fill the rest in.
