Introduction:
This guide is designed to help the UCSB community use Endnote. It offers detailed instructions for using Endnote in conjunction with UCSB resources. This is not an introduction or an all encompassing how-to guide. For this information please see the “Getting Started Guide” and "Help" material Endnote publishes.
There are three main ways to add entries, called “references” to your library: New Reference (Manual Entry of a Reference); Online Search (books and Web of Science only); and Import Filters. Each of these methods gathers data from different kinds of places, like library catalogs and article databases. To learn how to use each of these different methods see their individual headings under Collecting References section.
In addition to its ability to store
references, the information in Endnote can be exported to help you
create bibliographies, shared folders, and in-text citations with
Microsoft Word. See the Exporting Information section.
Finally, your desktop library can be synchronized with an online account. This will be the final section.
Before You Begin:
Make sure your software is up-to-date.
How to Update:
- Under Help menu, select Endnote Program Updates.
