EndNote for Research Projects

In order to ensure the research process is efficient, you will be required to download and install EndNote on your government-issued PC. EndNote will serve as the delivery mechanism for citations and full text. 

• Put in a ticket with your IT department for EndNote installation
• Download the EndNote installer (Product keys are also available on this page)
  • EndNote x9 is the preferred option if you will be managing a library or editing metadata
  • EndNote 20 is the most up to date version and is recommended for general users
  • You CAN have both x9 and 20 installed on the same PC (Cite While You Write will default to EN20 connection)
• Once installed, share your library with the research librarian.
  • Email the librarian after sharing (automated EndNote emails are sometimes caught in the email filter)
• Review relevant EndNote training videos on this page
