<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">You can do a soft migration, meaning you can leave classic RefWorks as is and then ask RefWorks to embed a link to new RefWorks. The new RefWorks link will display
<i>after</i> the user logons to RefWorks. (BTW: I asked if the link can be more prominent here and on the login page.)<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Or you can hard migrate, meaning you change the classic RefWorks URL (from where you have links to RefWorks) to the new RefWorks. All the users’ citations will migrate, but the users will need to create a
new username/password.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
