What is a Project in RefWorks? Do I need to create them?

Answer

You can create multiple Projects within RefWorks to help manage your references. 

When you first begin using RefWorks all of your references will be available in a default 'Untitled project'. You can leave this as it is and keep all of your references in one place, using Folders to manage references for different assignments, papers etc. 

However, if you have a large amount of references e.g. for a systematic review, you may prefer to use the Project option to manage them. This is because each Project is like having a separate RefWorks account with unique references in each Project. You could then share this Project with other collaborators who also use RefWorks but you can't move references from one Project to another.
