RefWorks Citation Manager (RCM) is a plug-in for Microsoft Word or Google Docs that allows you to quickly insert in-text citations and a bibliography to your document using references from your RefWorks folders. RCM is a newer version of Write-n-Cite. Note: documents written with Write-n-Cite are not recognized by RefWorks Citation Manager and vice versa
