Leaving Harvard? What to do...
In order not to lose valuable bibliographic data, RefWorks users leaving Harvard should plan in advance (while their Harvard PIN/ID is still valid) to backup or export their RefWorks database. Here are solutions to two common scenarios:
You are transferring to another institution that subscribes to RefWorks or you plan to purchase an individual subscription to RefWorks...
From RefWorks, go to References > Backup/Restore. Follow the instructions to download the ".rwb" file. When your new RefWorks account is activated, open RefWorks and go back to References > Backup/Restore and upload your ".rwb" file.
To receive an alumni promotional code that will entitle you to a discounted individual annual subscription rate of $50, contact RefWorks Support (support@refworks.com) and provide them with your Harvard RefWorks account login and e-mail address.
You would like to transfer your RefWorks data to some other kind of bibliographic software (like EndNote, Reference Manager or ProCite)...
From RefWorks, go to Tools > Export References.
Select one of the export formats (based on the descriptions
provided) and download your file. Then, import
the downloaded file into your new bibliographic management software.
