Whether you’re writing an essay or a dissertation, a research paper or a book, a technical proposal or a CV, you’ll find EndNote is the essential add-on to your word processor. EndNote makes it easy to connect to Internet-based libraries of reference data (there are many free-access databases in addition to those that your organisation or institution subscribes to) and locate exactly the references you need to cite in your work. EndNote makes it easy to store, catalogue and index these references in your own custom reference databases, together with images, figures, files and links that you want to include or cite.

Overview

Search bibliographic databases on the internet

• Using EndNote’s Connect…and Search… commands, you can search Internet databases just as easily as you can search your EndNote library on your computer.
• Simply open any of more than 3,900 predefined connection files and you’re online and searching.
• Access hundreds of remote bibliographic databases, including Web of Science, Ovid, PubMed, the Library of Congress, and university card catalogues from EndNote.
• Connect to data sources worldwide – EndNote provides MARC formats that support native language libraries around the world.
• Search remote bibliographic databases using EndNote’s simple search window – great for locating specific references.
• Export references directly from Web of Science, Highwire Press, Ovid, OCLC, ProQuest and more.
• Save and load search strategies at the click of a button.
• Drag and drop references between EndNote libraries in one simple step. No additional importing required.

Organise references, images, PDFs and other files

• Create an unlimited number of libraries of any size: In EndNote, bibliographic data is entered into a record by filling out a simple template that has the proper fields displayed for a given type of reference. There are 46 customisable reference types, covering a variety of materials from Ancient Texts to Web Pages, each with up to 52 fields for entering references and linking to PDF and image files. And you can organise references in any Unicode-supported language.
• Group references: Create custom groups, including smart groups that update automatically as references are added to a library, for instant access to subsets of references. And you can create groups containing both custom and smart groups for easier organisation. These main and sub-groups can be re-arranged at any time with a simple drag-and-drop action.
• Find full text articles automatically: EndNote will locate and download full text for you—no additional steps required! Select one or more references, a group, or your entire library and have EndNote scan for full text available to you. When the full text is found, EndNote downloads and links it to the appropriate reference automatically- while you continue with your work.
• Store PDF and other files with your EndNote library: Organise up to 45 files per reference in the "File Attachment" field. Drag and drop files onto a reference for auto-linking and storage with the library references – links never break.
• Organise image files: Track images including charts, figures and equations with a caption, keywords and more.
• Customise the reference library display: Click-sort column headings, adjust column widths and choose up to 8 fields to display.
• Preview formatted references: Using the Preview pane in the library window, you can preview selected references in over 2,800 bibliographic styles.
• Includes hundreds of import filters: There are many sources of bibliographic data that can be used to help you build your EndNote library of references. EndNote includes hundreds of import filters for a variety of online database providers (e.g. Ovid, EBSCO). You can create and modify import filters as well. Once you’ve downloaded the references in a tagged format, choose the appropriate import filter to import the data into your EndNote library.
• Link your EndNote records to the Web: Link your references to full-text articles or other material on the Web. You’ll find links created automatically when you connect and search online resources within EndNote.
• Use Term Lists for consistent data entry: Term Lists store glossaries of keywords, author names, or any other terms that are important to managing your references. As you enter new terms, EndNote suggests terms from these lists to facilitate data entry and to ensure terms are entered consistently. Pre-defined Journal Term Lists are provided for biomedicine, chemistry, and the humanities – complete with common abbreviations of journal names used in bibliographies.
• Searching: Use Quick Search in the toolbar to search all fields in an EndNote library, or the Search… command for additional options. You can limit your searches to specific fields such as Author name, Year, or Keywords and select a variety of operators.
• Global Editing: Use the Change Text, Change Field, and Move Field commands to modify existing references. These commands can automatically add a term to all or some of your references. These are useful tools for labeling groups of references as well as for fixing common typos or spelling mistakes.
• Sorting: Set up multi-level sorts on up to five fields of your choice such as Year, Journal and Title. Each level can be sorted in ascending or descending order. Column headings in the reference library window provide instant sorts on the displayed fields.
• Customise Settings: The settings for customising your EndNote library display, bibliographic preferences and other options are organised in one easy-to-access Preferences panel.
• Running EndNote on a Network: Use EndNote on a network and share libraries across mixed platforms.

Watch the bibliography and file list appear as you write!

• Create instant bibliographies in Microsoft Word, Apple Pages ’09 and OpenOffice.org Writer 3: Locate citations with Cite While You Write™(patent pending) technology. Watch the bibliography appear as you insert citations in your manuscript.
• Include multiple bibliographies within a single Word document – specify end of chapters, end of document, or both.
• Track cited references in Microsoft Word: A travelling library of cited references follows the Microsoft Word document. When you’re ready to send your paper to colleagues, the references travel with it. You can also transfer references directly from colleagues’ papers to use in your EndNote library with the export traveling library feature.
• EndNote handles even the trickiest bibliographic details: EndNote includes bibliographic features that address a wide range of formatting issues in the humanities, biomedicine, physical, life, and social sciences. Here are some of the advanced formatting features EndNote handles with ease:
  • Shortened forms of references in footnotes, including "Ibid."
  • Numbered text notes within a bibliography
  • Options for anonymous works
  • Hanging indent option
  • Capitalisation options for author names or title
  • Composite styles that group citations by number and letter (popular with chemistry styles)
