Introduction to EndNote Online Roaming Access

There are several different versions of EndNote. 

  • EndNote Desktop -  which you can buy yourselves and install on your computer. We do not support this in the library and can't help you with it. In most cases even at Masters and PhD level EndNote Online Roaming Access is fine.
  • EndNote apps which you can buy yourselves and install on your phone or tablet. Again you are on your own with support.
  • EndNote Online - is a combination of an online account and a plugin  for Microsoft Word and your browser. It is free for everybody all around the world.
  • EndNote Online Roaming Access - This requires you to login to EndNote online on campus in an Institute that has a subscription to Web of Science or Roaming access (IT Sligo for example). This gives you a roaming library and means you get access to the IT Sligo Harvard Bibliographic Style. You have to login "on campus" once every 12 months to keep roaming access. We are going to show you how to register and login in such a way that looks like you are "on campus" so you get roaming access. Roaming access is given to you while you are a student of IT Sligo.

 

Web of Science is a journal citation database that we subscribe to. EndNote Online is owned by the same company. Your login will work for both Web of Science (WOS) and EndNote Online.

 

How to Create an EndNote Online Account 

  • Go to www.myendnoteweb.com and create an account. You can use whatever email address you like.

You have to do this once a year to get the "Cite Them Right Harvard ITS" style working in word. This will not work from some workplaces, or work devices, or from other third level campuses.
