What Is EndNote?
EndNote is a software tool that helps researchers gather, manage, and cite references to scholarly literature and materials (such as journal articles, books, maps, reports, artwork, etc.). For more information about EndNote and other reference management tools available at KU, see www.lib.ku.edu/technology/citing.
Available versions and features
KU currently supports EndNote X1 and recommends this version for all users. This version is compatible with Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, and Mac OS X (10.3.9 and higher, including 10.5.x). The Cite While You Write feature is compatible with Microsoft Word 2000, XP, 2003, 2004 (Mac) and 2007. However, in order to use Cite While You Write with Word 2008 (Mac) you must install an additional patch available from EndNote's Website.
NOTE: Those who have upgraded to EndNote X1 on Windows XP and Vista may now update their version to EndNote X1.0.1. Instructions for installing the update can be found at the bottom of their page.
For discussion of new features and how to download and install the update page, please review the information at www.endnote.com
New: EndNote Web
EndNote Web works similarly to EndNote but your library is stored remotely. Although not as robust as EndNote, EndNote Web makes an excellent complement to your local installation of EndNote particularly when it comes to sharing your resources with others or when working in multiple locations. For more information go to www.endnoteweb.com.
