If you already have an account set up with RefWorks, you can link this to your OpenAthens account.

Go to RefWorks (https://refworks.proquest.com) and login with your RefWorks details.

In the top right hand corner, click on your name to open out the user menu:

Click on Settings.

Scroll down the page to the section labelled Institutional Credentials:

Click on the Associate Credentials button.

You will then be taken to an OpenAthens login page – enter your OpenAthens username and password.

You should then return to the RefWorks page, with a brief message that says “Welcome back! Your account is now associated with your institutional login.”

When you next need to login to RefWorks, you can choose the Use login from my institution button, scroll down the drop-down list to the bottom, select NHS in England, and login that way.
