EndNote & EndNote Web Description

EndNote

EndNote is a reference manager software program that allows you to collect and organize your references and to create bibliographies. It allows you to either type in or capture references from our Electronic Resources.  Using EndNote, you can create bibliographies within Microsoft Word or other word-processors. EndNote is able to format bibliographies in almost every conceivable bibliographic citation style, such as APA, Chicago Manual of Style, MLA, Turabian, Science and other journal-specific bibliographic citation styles.

EndNote Web

EndNote Web is a free version of EndNote available for institutions which subscribe to ISI Databases, like Web of Science. MSU Libraries does subscribe to Web of Science - which can be accessed from the electronic resources page.

Besides being free, the major advantage of EndNote Web is that you can access your account from any computer that has an internet connection (as long as you can access the MSU Libraries' electronic resources). Many users like to try out EndNote Web to see if it will meet their needs before they purchase the regular EndNote software. With EndNote Web, it is possible to share libraries with other EndNote Web users - making collaboration easy. EndNote Web can also work with EndNote so you can move references between the two (version 10 or higher).

 

EndNote Availability at MSU

You may purchase a copy of EndNote for your own computer at the MSU Computer Store or at the MSU Bookstore.

On a Microlab computer to use Word with EndNote and have the interconnection of the two work together; you must start EndNote first before opening Word. EndNote stores some files temporarily when it opens that Word needs to have the interconnection.

EndNote Web

Current MSU students, faculty, and staff can access EndNote Web through the Libraries' subscription to any of the ISI Databases, like Web of Science. Look for the 'My EndNote Web' link in the top right-hand side of any of the ISI Databases. Off-campus access requires a MSU NetID and password.

The first time you use EndNote Web through one of the ISI Databases, you will need to register for a free EndNote Web account. The help screens are very user friendly.
