ACS Publications is discontinuing ACS ChemWorx (including the reference manager function) on May 20, 2019. This means users will no longer be able to access ACS ChemWorx or add new references to your ACS ChemWorx reference library from the ACS Publications website.

ACS Publications has begun a collaboration with Mendeley. ChemWorx users will be able to transfer references to Mendeley, but must do so before May 20, 2019. Here’s how:
