Add PDFs to RefWorks

RefWorks lets you upload the full-text PDFs of the articles themselves, so you can keep all your citations and documents in one place.

 

 

Make sure that the PDF of the same article is downloaded somewhere on your computer - your desktop, your downloads folder - it doesn't matter where, you just need to be able to navigate to it!

 

Minimize the RefWorks screen a bit, so that you can simultaneously see the article information and your PDF at the same time.

 

 

Once that has been done, just drag the PDF of the article over top of the citation information on the right.  

 

Once you have done this, the RefWorks system will spin and think a bit, and before you know it, the PDF of the article will have been uploaded to your account, and you can then read it whenever you want.
