RefWorks is Now Accessible From Your Mobile Phone.

RefWorks has announced the release of RefMobile, a new product allowing registered users to access and use their RefWorks account from a Net-enabled cell phone, smart phone or PDA. All that's needed is a groupcode and a RefWorks user name and password. Features of RefMobile include the ability to view references in a RefWorks account, search within RefWorks, add a note to a reference and add new references using a "smart add" option.

The RefMobile interface gives users immediate access to the most commonly used RefWorks functions, including searching their entire RefWorks databases, viewing references by folders, adding and removing references from folders, creating new folders, and adding comments to Notes fields. Users can also efficiently import new references to their RefWorks account using the new SmartAdd feature.

For more information see the RefMobile press release and the Working with RefMobile page.
