There are several ways to view your references and a variety of functions may be performed from each view. To learn more about the functions that can be performed from each view, see Managing References.
When viewing references, you can also choose how you would like them displayed:
Standard View (which is the default) and includes author, title and source information.
One Line/Cite View (used to insert citation placeholders in a document you are writing). The One Line/Cite View has a Cite and View link along with Author, Year and Title only.
Full View (which displays all the fields of information in each record) by clicking on the drop-down at the top of the reference area. The Full View shows all fields of information in your record.
Up to 3 output style views (which will display a preview of how your reference would appear in a potential output style). To determine which output styles you would like to preview, go to the Tools area, and select Customize and make your selections.
In the all views (with the exception of the One line/Cite view), you can also easily see which folder(s) each reference is in. In the grey record separator, in the right-hand corner, a folder icon is displayed along with the name(s) of the folders the reference is stored in. You can modify where the reference is stored by clicking on the edit link.
By default, only 25 references will display per page. You can change the number of records displayed by going into the Tools area and selecting Customize. Replace the current References Per Page number and click Save. You can choose to display up to 500 records per page, however, the more records per page you display, the longer it can take to appear on your screen. Also, if you choose a large number of records per page AND also choose Full View, this can impact the amount of time it takes for a page to display.
Hint: If you want to print out all the fields of information in your references, select your references, click the Print button and then select the RefWorks Tagged Format from the output style list, or create a custom output style.
Scholar Universe Linking
RefWorks features an author resolver that links author names from your RefWorks database to possible matching profiles within COS Scholar Universe™ database. Scholar Universe™ is a multi-disciplinary database containing profiles of authors, university faculty and other scholars.
Author names with the Scholar
Universe™ icon 
indicates a potential match in Scholar
Universe. If
you mouse over the icon, you'll see a message displaying the confidence
level (bars) that this author has a record in Scholar Universe. Clicking
on the icon displays the author's information in Scholar Universe. (Note: If
your Organization is a Scholar Universe subscriber, you will see the full
record. All
others will view a free preview profile).
Note:
The Scholar
Universe™ icon is only displayed in the Standard
View or Full View (when viewing
a list of references) or by clicking the View
link for a specific reference.
Potential matches to the Scholar Universe™ database ranked by confidence level, with 5 being a definite match and lower numbers indicating a lesser degree of certainty of a match. You can determine when RefWorks will display the person icon by selecting a level of certainty (bars), as we well as having the option to disable the feature.
By default, this option is enabled and will display the person icon if a confidence level of 2 or more bars are found. You can modify this option, as we well as disable the feature in the Tools, Customize area -- Reference List Options section.
To see all of the references in your database, from the View menu select All References.
The references appear in the All References window. You can view the details of the reference or edit the reference by clicking the appropriate link in the top right corner of the reference.

To view references in a specific folder, from the View menu select Folder and select the specific folder you want to view.
The references appear in the <Folder Name> Folder window. To learn about creating and Organizing Folders, see Organizing Folders.
You can designate a specific folder to display when you log in to RefWorks. Just select Tools, Customize and the name of your folder from the View Folder drop-down in the Startup Options area. You can also specify a default sort order as well.
After you have performed a Search or Advanced Search, the results appear in the view area.
