RefWorks User Name Changes

Just a quick update, some of our RefWorks users ?ámay receive an email from RefWorks-COS Support Services [support@refworks-cos.com]?árequesting them to update their RefWorks username this week. (I did!)

This is legitimate – RefWorks is moving everyone to unique user names in order to simplify the login process. They suggest using your email as a new username, but that is not required. So if you’re like me, and use something like librarygrrrl42* as a username, well, go right ahead.

Any questions or issues about RefWorks please call Molly Knapp at 568-6100 or email mknapp@lsuhsc.edu

Full text of RefWorks email follows.
