If you want to continue using RefWorks after you leave the University you can purchase an individual subscription. There’s further information about this on the RefWorks website. Before you leave, you’ll need to create a backup of your account:

• Select References on the top toolbar
• Click on Backup/Restore
• Deselect Include Attachments,  Include RSS Feeds and any custom output styles if do not want to include this information
• Click on Perform Backup
• Save the file

Then, once you’ve taken out your personal subscription, just upload your backup file into your new account so that your Queen’s data is transferred across:

• Select References on the top toolbar
• Click on Backup/Restore
• Select the Restore option
• Select Include References, Include Attachments (if you have any), Include RSS Feeds (if you have any) and Include Output Styles (if you have any)
• Browse for your backup file
• Click on Perform Restore

There’s a bug in the output style of the Journal of Advanced Nursing which may prevent Write-N-Cite formatting your Word document. To get around this problem you can format your paper in the full version of RefWorks:

• Click on Bibliography on the top toolbar
• Select the Format Paper and Bibliography option
• Browse for your Word document
• Click on the Create Bibliography button

Alternatively, you can create your own bug-free version of the output style for use with Write-N-Cite. To do this:

• Click on Bibliography on the top toolbar
• Select the Journal of Advanced Nursing as the Output Style
• Click on the Edit button
• Give the output style a new name by changing the text in the Name box
• Click on the Save As button
• Click on the Bibliography Settings button on the left of the screen
• Remove the /f from the Reference List Title box
• Click on the Save button

(Removing the /f command, which is the source of the problems, gets rid of the page break before the list of references. Therefore, you’ll need to manually insert a page break in your final document.)
