EndNote: what is it?
EndNote is software supporting:
- information management: collect information in one place, group in a relevant structure, comment, add keywords and much more;
- referencing, footnotes and a bibliography: add references in a text, using the correct reference style ("output style"), make or change reference styles, set up bibliographic lists.
Using reference software has many advantages:
- create a personal library of information gathered in journals, books, websites, blogs, patents and other sources;
- create an overview of collected information, with the option to add the full text;
- add citations, footnotes and a bibliography to a text and apply the correct reference style in a few clicks;
- connect with databases, catalogues and Google Scholar to import references.
Install
EndNote can be installed via Academic Software.
