About Endnote

EndNote software logo

EndNote is a research tool and citation manager. Use it to:

  • Search online resources for references
  • Import and store references that you find in databases and catalogs (such as PubMed, Academic Search, or Josiah)
  • Import references from your downloaded PDFs—or use the Find Full Text feature to download the PDFs of your imported references
  • Organize your references into groups
  • Create bibliographies and reference lists in over 5,000 styles
  • Share references with research partners and colleagues in EndNote Web.

There are two versions of Endnote -- a stand alone desktop program, and EndNote Online, a cloud-based version. If you want to use both, they can be synced so that you have the same references (from a single desktop library) in both places.
