EndNote Web delivers an easy-to-use Web-based bibliographic solution that complements EndNote X.0.2, as well as providing tight integration with ISI Web of Knowledge. Your users can even start their papers in EndNote Web and finish them on the desktop with EndNote X.0.2 and vice versa! To access EndNote Web, they can go to www.myendnoteweb.com.

What is EndNote Web?

EndNote Web is a Web-based bibliographic service for students and researchers that organizes personal reference collections and saves time retyping references for course work and publication. EndNote Web searches ISI Web of KnowledgeSM, PubMed and hundreds of online library catalogs and imports references, complete with abstracts. With EndNote Web you can:

  • Search ISI Web of Knowledge, PubMed and hundreds of library OPACs directly
  • Import references from hundreds of online bibliographic databases and organize a library of references in many languages
  • Store up to 10,000 references per EndNote Web account
  • Edit references—add notes, keywords—modify any field
  • Use over 2,300 publishing styles to format in-text citations and bibliographies
  • Cite While You Write™ in Microsoft Word (requires plug-in) to insert references and format papers instantly
  • Format papers in other word processors using RTF (rich text format) files
  • Easily transfer references to and from EndNote X.0.2 or later (export/import to previous versions)
  • Simplify collaboration with colleagues—share EndNote Web folders
  • Use EndNote Web toolbars in Microsoft Internet Explorer and Firefox™ to access your reference library in one click, and capture citation data easily (requires plug-in).

How will students and researchers learn to use EndNote Web?

EndNote Web’s intuitive interface gets users up to speed quickly. An online Getting Started Guide comes with the program, including online tutorials with 24/7 access to assist users getting started. For more information, please go to www.endnoteweb.com/training or view the EndNote Web Guided Tour in the Help Section.

What are the system requirements for EndNote Web?

View the latest system requirements for EndNote Web at www.endnoteweb.com/enwproductinfo.asp.

How can EndNote users take advantage of EndNote Web?

Desktop EndNote users will find EndNote Web a great way to collaborate, maximizing the expertise each researcher brings to a project. Using EndNote Web, researchers can share specific folders with designated colleagues or students. A shared folder can be viewed by others with an EndNote Web account. EndNote on the desktop remains the powerhouse favored by researchers who publish frequently, write citation-intensive works and require the performance available only from a desktop tool.

The addition of EndNote Web helps undergraduate students organize their references for citing in papers. EndNote Web users can select EndNote X.0.2 (or later) or EndNote Web, for citing references in a paper. Cite While You Write works the same whether you are citing references from your desktop or Web library.

For the professional researcher and graduate student who depend on EndNote and other desktop writing tools, EndNote Web is the perfect complement for storing references. Now the millions of EndNote users who demand a robust desktop writing tool with a higher degree of accessibility and control can be even more productive using the combination of EndNote X.0.2 (or later) and EndNote Web.

How do I create my EndNote Web account?

- Click the Sign Up for an account link.

- Complete the registration fields and click the I Accept button if you accept the End User License Agreement.
- Follow the instructions provided to install the plug-ins, or click the “Return to my library” link to go to your new library.

    - Register to create a new account or sign-in to an existing account.
    - Use the “Save to my EndNote Web” button to store references while searching ISI Web of Knowledge
    - Click on “Go to my EndNote Web library” to review your collected references at any time.

Alfred University students produced this exhibit when they observed that a local supermarket’s Black History display merely featured boxes of Aunt Jemima Pancake Mix and Uncle Ben’s Rice. This exhibit was a response to the need for education in our supermarkets and the public at large. Putting a new spin on diversity education, this program uncovers the truth behind many common food products and advertising campaigns. This exhibit brings new meaning to food for thought.
