Managing your references using EndNote

På svenska

Use EndNote to collect and organise references and create references in the correct style. Lund University staff with a Lucat ID can download EndNote for free, including updates. Your Faculty Library offers introductory courses and individual support services.

Getting started with EndNote

  1. An EndNote library consists of two files: .DATA och .ENL. These files need to be saved and stored together, for example in a separate folder or on your desktop.
  2. We recommend that you only create and use ONE library in place of creating multiple libraries. Instead, organise your references in separate groups for quick orientation and overview of your reference collection.

Installation of EndNote on your computer

We highly recommend installing EndNote on your computer, avoiding cloud services such as Box, OneDrive, or iCloud. Contact Med IT for installation support at servicedesk [at] lu [dot] se (servicedesk[at]lu[dot]se).

EndNote is developed by Clarivate Analytics and is available for both Windows och Mac.
