RefWorks is a Web-based bibliography and database manager. It allows users to create their own personal database by importing references from text files or online databases.
The following resource guide has been updated.
Resource Guides are instructional tools to introduce users to basic information. If you think the Library should add a Resource Guide, please let us know.
If your LSUHSC password is ready to expire, it might be a safer bet to change it at a wired computer, rather than attempting to change it while connected (or attempting to connect) to the wireless. Because of individal computer caching issues, the new password does not always work perfectly. Passwords may be changed at any of the Library’s public PCs by accessing your LSUHSC webmail.

Did you know that LSUHSC-NO is a PC institution?
For Mac users, this can present a problem. At the moment, instructions are not available for configuring a Mac or an iPhone to get onto the LSUHSC secure wireless network.
However, you can always plug into our network from any of the laptop ports around the Library and Library Commons. Each of our study rooms on the fourth floor, the study carrels near the Registrar’s office and areas on the 3rd and 5th floors provide blue network ports so you can plug in. Here’s a handy map! In the Library Commons, check underneath the glass display cases for blue network ports.
Don’t have a network cable handy? We got you covered. You can check out a network cable at the Circulation Desk.
With so many students returning to campus for the Fall semester, we’re seeing a number of issues accessing the wireless network. If the directions that the Library or Nursing School have posted aren’t working out. Try not checking off any of the certificate authorities. When the popup box comes up to accept the security certificate, wait a few moments before clicking OK. It seems like if you click through the boxes too quickly, you end up stuck in a login loop.
If this doesn’t work, we can try to help in the Library or you can hunt down a computer supporter in your school.
A number of patrons have been receiving a certificate error when attempting to use the Library’s Remote Access system (WAM).
The certificate was renewed by LSU-Baton Rouge but is not propigating properly for some reason. To install the certificate, click on the from the following link. And then choose Open and then Install. Accept any other default settings. *Please note that this certificate only works with Internet Explorer & not Firefox.*
Once installation is complete (takes about 10 seconds), attempt the off-campus link from the Library’s webpages again.
~EDIT~ This issue is now resolved thanks to the efforts of the IT staff.
There will be a RefWorks class tomorrow, Thursday, May 28 from 1-2pm in the library, computer lab 405. Walk-ins welcome! Contact Molly Knapp at mknapp@lsuhsc.edu for more information.

RefWorks is a free web-based bibliography and database manager that allows you to create your own personal database by importing references from text files or online databases and other various sources. You can use these references in writing papers and automatically format the paper and the bibliography in seconds.
A new feature in Web of Science debuted recently. The new citation map feature allows first & second generation mapping of citations both backwards and forwards. The resulting map can be customized and edited. (An ActiveX Install was necessary on both computers where I tried this new feature.)
