OpenOffice and RefWorks

For those of you who aren't familiar with OpenOffice:

"OpenOffice is ... open-source office software suite for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, graphics, databases and more. It is available in many languages and works on all common computers. It stores all your data in an international open standard format and can also read and write files from other common office software packages. It can be downloaded and used completely free of charge for any purpose." OpenOffice.org

The Write-N-Cite utility produced by RefWorks to generate bibliographies and format citations in papers only works in Microsoft Word. To use RefWorks to handle bibliographies and citations in OpenOffice, you use the One Line/Cite alternative method for formatting citations.

MIT Libraries has detailed instructions using RefWorks with OpenOffice.
