Answer
There are several ways to get your references into RefWorks
Here are a few:
- Importing directly from certain online database services that have a link to RefWorks from within their databases
- Importing text files containing references from online database services
- Manually entering references
Direct Import:
RefWorks has a "direct import" feature within several online database
service providers including:
ABC-CLIO, CSA, EBSCOHost, EI Engineering Village2, NISC,
BiblioLine, OCLC First Search, Ovid, Project Muse, ProQuest, SFX
And more are being added all the time!

Importing Text Files:
Most databases that do not support direct import into RefWorks will allow you to download a text file of a citation that can then be uploaded to RefWorks.

Manually Entering References:
If you are unable to import your reference by either ot the above methods, you can always enter your citation manually.
