Choosing an Alternate Password for your RefWorks Account

 Choosing an alternate password for your account will allow you to login to RefWorks for Google Docs and RefWorks Citation Manager for Microsoft Word using your NCU school email and this alternate password. Currently, these integrations do not sync with the Connecticut College institutional sign-in page. 

To set up an alternate password for your RefWorks account, use the following steps:

1. Click on your name in the top right corner in your RefWorks online dashboard and go to Settings.

2. Scroll to the Alternate Password section and click on Set alternate password.

3. Create an alternate password that is at least 6 characters for your RefWorks account and click on Save.
