…and compiling your reference list / bibliography becomes a rather less arduous task. This clever piece of software allows you to export full bibliographic information from a book record on the library catalogue or a journal article in a database into your own personal ‘library’ of references. When it comes to typing up your essay, dissertation, research paper or whatever it is you are writing, you simply place your cursor at the precise point in your write-up where you want the in-text reference to appear, look up the item in your ‘library’ and the reference is added to your document both in-text and in the reference list with all the required information included (author, date, title, place of publication etc.). All you then need to do to format your bibliography is choose the correct referencing style from a list e.g. APA or Harvard or even one of hundreds of publication-specific formats (for publishing in journals).
Two versions of Endnote at available at UEL. Endnote X is the powerful desktop version installed on all PCs on-campus. Endnote Web is a free web-based version with all the main features, which can be used from anywhere either on or off-campus. Please note, however, that you will need to be on-campus to register for an Endnote Web account. More information on both versions is available on the library’s Endnote webpages.
