Articles and Literary Criticism

Generally, the first step in researching an author or literary topic is to do a preliminary (or more thorough) search in the following databases:

Citing Sources

RefWorks allows you to import references from text files or online sources. You can use these references in writing and formatting papers and bibliographies in a variety of styles (e.g., APA, MLA, Chicago).

If you haven't used RefWorks before, you'll need to create an account.

  1. Go to https://refworks.proquest.com/ and click the "Create Account" link at the bottom of the white box.
  2. Fill in your information using the @bears.unco.edu or @unco.edu email. You cannot use a different account to set up the RefWorks account, though you can change it in settings later. 
  3. When it asks your department, indicate your major.

You'll receive an email with a link to complete the registration process. Once you complete registration, you'll get access immediately and can get started managing your references.

Contact jennifer.leffler@unco.edu if you experience difficulties.
