Endnote Web: an easier way to manage your references

During your research, you'll collect a large number of references to articles, books, proceedings and other documents. In order to keep an organised and searchable record of these, you might like to use EndNote Web; an online version of the software, Endnote . As a result of the Library's subscription to Web of Knowledge, University of Bath staff & students can use it free-of-charge.

This can be accessed from any location and via the Library webpages; for example, via the
online resources webpage.

You can record up to 10,000 references at a time and retain collections of references between sessions of research. You can also create and format lists of references in a variety of styles.

In order to create and access your own EndNote Web references, you first need to sign in / register.

Please be aware that you will lose your EndNote Web collection of references when you leave the University. However, before leaving, you can transfer your references to the software version of Endnote. If you are a student, this can be purchased at a discount rate. For more information, contact IT Purchasing.

If you are already using the software version of Endnote, you can move your entire collection of references to EndNote Web.

You can also access Endnote Web from within Web of Knowledge: click on My Endnote Web which is listed at the bottom right of the homepage.

If you are unable to export references from a particular database or you would like more information, please contact me.
