RefWorks 2.0 Launch Update

Some of you may be using the new-look RefWorks 2.0 already - for those who are not, please start trying it! As RefWorks develops new functionality, this will only be available in the RefWorks 2.0 interface, and the "old" version will be phased out by the end of this year.
