What happens to my RefWorks account when I graduate or if I leave McMaster?

you will be able to access your McMaster RefWorks account until your MAC ID expires
while you still have access to your McMaster RefWorks account, you can export your reference data to another citation manager (e.g. Reference Manager, Endnote, etc.) using one of RefWorks' Export options
alternatively, while you still have access to your McMaster account, you can convert your McMaster RefWorks account to an individual subscription, or if you have access to a new organizational RefWorks subscription, you can move your account
more information about purchasing an individual subscription is available at the RefWorks corporate website
to move your account, select Tools, Backup/Restore and make a backup of your database. You will be prompted to save a .zip or .rwb file to your computer. In your new account, select Tools, Backup/Restore and use the restore option to add the .zip or .rwb file to your new account.
