Attaching Your Research Paper in RefWorks
Tired of the dog eating your papers, or losing your jump drive? Want to save a draft of your paper in the cloud? You can do it in RefWorks.
First, save your paper either on your computer or on a jump drive. Now, open RefWorks and create a citation.
To create a citation in RefWorks go to References, click Add New. Type your own name as author, and if you wish, give it a title–the same as your paper or the name of the class.
Using the citation you created above, click the Edit symbol: a pencil resting on a pad of paper. The Edit Reference screen appears. Scroll down to the word Attachments, click Browse. Locate your saved paper, click Open. Click Save & Add New.
You should now see a paperclip next to the other icons in the Ref ID line. Also an MS Word icon, a large W positioned over a sheet of paper, will appear under Attachments. 
Viola! Your draft is now in the cloud.
To open the paper, click on the paperclip or the Word icon.
