RefWorks Announces RefAware Service

This simple-to-use service allows researchers to be alerted when new articles are available—most within hours of publication and many even prepublication. RefAware covers more than 8,000 peer-reviewed journals and other nonreferred sources of information in six specific areas of coverage: Life Science, Biology, and Medicine; Physical Sciences; Engineering; Social Sciences; Arts & Humanities; and Business. With the ability to create up to ten separate search queries, researchers can now use RefAware to keep them informed of "up-to-the-minute" information based on their unique interests, offering comprehensive, real-time pictures of global research.

RefWorks was founded in 2001 by a team of experts in the field of bibliographic database management and is dedicated to providing high quality web-based research discovery, management, and collaboration tools for the academic, government, and corporate research communities. RefWorks is used daily by more than a million researchers in more than 900 organizations globally. RefWorks is a business unit of ProQuest, LLC (www.proquest.com).
