Using One Line/Cite View with RefWorks logo

Overview

One Line/Cite View is a procedure for creating bibliographies that is alternative to using Write-N-Cite. It is available to all RefWorks users, and is the only method of creating bibliographies for users whose systems do not meet the System Requirements for Write-N-Cite (see below).

System Requirements

One Line/Cite View is designed for:

  • All Macintosh users
  • Windows users who are not using Windows 98, ME, NT, 2000 or XP
  • Anyone using a word processor other than Microsoft Word 2000 and up
  • Anyone using a browser other than Internet Explorer 5.0 and up, e.g., Firefox, Netscape, etc.

Getting Started
