EndNote: Introduction

What is EndNote?

EndNote is a software program that helps you organise your research. EndNote allows you to:

• Record, store and manage references
• Add references manually or search and download directly from online databases and library catalogues
• Use a feature called Cite While You Write which allows you to insert references and automatically create bibliographies for your papers

There is a new EndNote training module in the Brightspace perpetual semester.

This EndNote course is available to all University staff, students and researchers who are interested in learning more about how to use EndNote 21 reference management software.

Designed to support writers from all disciplines, the course covers how to create your first EndNote library, how to add references to your library by various means, and how to add those references into your MS Word documents in the appropriate style for your discipline. Unit 1 offers instruction on how to interact with the EndNote 21 desktop application, while unit 2 covers the interaction of EndNote 21 with Microsoft Word.

A certificate is available where proof of completion is required for module assessment, however, this module is also designed to be a reference resource for anyone who may need extra guidance to accomplish specific tasks within EndNote 21.
