¿Cómo se puede volver a la página inicial estando en una carpeta? Debería estar claro el camino mediante una pestaña o un enlace.
Estando en una carpeta no se ve con facilidad cómo volver a la página de inicio de la cuenta personal. Yo al menos no he encontrado el camino. Creo que ese problema se resolvería colocando una pestaña o un link que con hacer clic en él nos devolviese al inicio.

Create reports based on common wording in the "notes" field
Some of the references I have collected are available only in a certain University. During the course of collecting the data, I mentioned in the "notes" field that these specific articles are available in that University. Now I want to go there and make a report/list of all the references of which I mentioned in the notes they are available there. How do I do it? Tag it? Can I create a report based on tagging?
Might it be able to learn from the common wording I used in the notes field: "Available/accessible on XXX".1 voteAlready Supported · AdminShalhevet Bar-Asher (VP, Research Information Management, Ex Libris) respondedWhen searching in RefWorks (at the right end of the toolbar), it searches the Notes field as well.

Empower Users to Continue Access to Data Post-Graduation
Logging in using institutional Shibboleth is easiest for the majority of users. However, this method of authentication only works so long as they continue their institutional affiliation. Please design a way for users to select their login preferences after the initial account creation, in order to offer users the option to change their sign-in to an email address and password of their choice. This will help them continue access post-graduation, which is particularly important for graduate students.
1 voteAlready Supported · AdminShalhevet Bar-Asher (VP, Research Information Management, Ex Libris) respondedIn the login screen users can log in with their email and password or by selecting their institution from the drop down list (Shibboleth). If they left the institution they should simply use their email and password (defined when they initially created the account). They can change the email address associated with their account under Settings (to a non-institutional email), and if they forgot the password they originally defined they can click on Forgot Password.

Search Using Keywords
When an article is read through the refworks, currently keywords cannot be searched nor highlighted. Currently, the paper should be downloaded to the computer and then searched using Ctrl+F. It would be great, to have this option in refworks itself.
