Compendex and RefWorks workshops

May 19, 2010 at 3:21 pm Leave a comment

I’ve just done a workshop in our new teaching room for some academics and researchers in SEMS. A lovely group of people, and it was great to show RefWorks and one of our key databases for Engineering, Compdendex, off. Did you know that you can use our resources to save you time and effort?

  • Create perfect (and correct!) bibliographies in seconds
  • Maintain a list of articles on a website that keeps itself up to date
  • Store all your references in one place online (as well as any files and attachments!)
  • Get the database to send you relecvant articles (instead of you having to search for them)

And that’s just a few of the benefits!

Of the group that I’ve just seen, 100% (ok, 4 out of 4!) would recommend this session to others…and I didn’t pay them :)

If any of this sounds like your cup of tea, let me know. I can do 1-2-1 sessions or arrange a workshop for groups up to 20.
