Cite it! Sort it! EndNote it!

The Information Services Team in the Library are running additional workshops the week beginning the 22nd of February, 2016 to support staff and students in using EndNote.

EndNote is a commercial reference management software package, used to manage references when writing essays and articles. It is produced by Thomson Reuters.

In the workshop, the Information Specialists will work through creating an EndNote Library online, importing references from other sources (such as Scopus, Proquest, Library SmartSearch & Google Scholar) and managing your references once they are in your EndNote Library.  There will be plenty of opportunity to practise and the Information Specialist will be in the room to support you.

Finally, we will look at how you can import your references in to your Word document using the Cite While You Write function.

The EndNote workshops are open to final year undergraduates writing a dissertation, postgraduates starting their final project, research students and academics.

If you are interested in attending please view the workshop timetable and register for one of the events.

EndNote online interface updated

The online interface for EndNote has been updated to bring it in line with the look and feel of Web of Science, so you will notice that the red and grey has been replaced by orange and black.

All of the underlying functionality you are familiar with is still the same, so you should find you adapt to the new interface very quickly.

There is a new feature for anyone currently writing a journal article and unsure which journal title to submit to - the new manuscript matcher.  With a few key pieces of information—title, abstract, and references—EndNote online will use patent-pending technology to analyze millions of data points and citation connections from Web of Science to build a list of journals that are best suited to your manuscript.

If you would like further help on using EndNote online, you can access Thomson Reuters training materials or contact your Information Specialist.
