Citation Tools

The following tools and websites are great resources for help in creating citations and bibliographic lists.

RefWorks

Use RefWorks to save your citations, secure a path back to full-text online articles, and get started on creating your Works Cited Page.

If this is your first time using RefWorks, you must create an account using your @hamline university address.

See our guide on using RefWorks .

Legacy RefWorks
Some RefWorks users may continue to have a Legacy RefWorks account. However we recommend against opening an account for the Legacy RefWorks since this older version will be sunsetted sometime in the near future.
Contact Research Assistance to learn how to migrate legacy to new RefWorks.

Note: Exporting citations from the Hein database to RefWorks is not working currently from the Cite link. See these instructions for a workaround.
