EndNote

What is EndNote?

EndNote is a bibliographic software program. It can be used to search for literature, develop a personal library of references, and create and format citations for papers and publications. EndNote is particularly helpful for managing large numbers of references and citations.

What can EndNote do?

  • Create, organize, and modify references. There are 41 customizable reference types, covering a variety of material types from Ancient Texts to Web Pages, each with all the relevant fields.
  • Store PDF and other files with your EndNote library. Simply drag and drop PDF files onto a reference for auto-linking and storage with the library references. Links never break.
  • Search remote bibliographic databases using EndNote's simple search window-- great for locating specific references.
  • Export the citations for marked records into EndNote. Many databases such as: any of the EBSCO databases; Google Scholar; JSTOR; any of the ProQuest databases; ScienceDirect; and WilsonWeb; allow this. Links are to short tutorials explaining how to download references.
  • Format citations and figures in Microsoft Word with the Cite While You Write technology. Watch the bibliography and figure list appear as you insert citations in your manuscript.

  • Where is EndNote available?

    EndNote is available on all of the computers in St. Francis College's labs. It is not available on the thin-screen clients found throughout the schools in hallways and lounges.
