To do this, open EndNote, from the top menu bar, select Help EndNote Program Updates. Click Next on the Update window. You will then see a message that either says updates are available, asking you to install OR a message that says EndNote is current. Customize EndNote to work specifically with UW-Madison databases After installation you may customize to: 1.

Import Journal Terms List (full titles and abbreviations) for your subject/field (i.e. Medicine, Bioscience, etc.) How to Create an EndNote Library (*.enl) An EndNote library is your database of references, including any file attachments. 1. Open the EndNote program on your desktop 2. From the top menu bar select File New 1 3. Save it on your computer wherever you prefer. When you create a new library, another folder will automatically be created with the same name, but will be a data folder. You will see a .enl file and a .data file. These need to stay together. Do not delete the data folder or separate it from the .enl library. How to Organize Citations using Groups within Your EndNote Library Organize your citations into categories by creating custom folders (called groups). EndNote comes with three permanent groups that cannot be renamed or deleted (All References, Unfiled, and Trash). There are also temporary groups that are created by EndNote as needed such as Copied References, Duplicate References, Imported References, etc. From the top menu bar, click on Groups > Create Group (you can have 500 groups/library) In the left column of your screen you will see a box called New Group. Rename this to whatever you want (i.e. Drug Lit, Cancer, Biology 101) You can delete or rename groups at any time. How to manually add a reference (only if you have to!) 1. From the top menu bar, select References > New Reference 2. Select the appropriate Reference Type, such as Journal article, from the drop-down menu (important because it determines the fields that will show in the citation) 3. Enter information in the appropriate fields o Author: One name per line (hard return <Enter>), with a comma after the author’s last name and before the first name or any initials o Corporate names should be entered as they appear with a comma at the end of the name for correct alphabetizing (e.g. American Medical Association,) o When typing in the title of an item, do not use the hard return (Enter key). Instead let EndNote wrap the text for you. 4. Close the record and you will be prompted to SAVE click YES 5. Your record will be in the All References group by default. You can drag it into any group you want. The citation can be placed into multiple groups. How to add a reference automatically from a PDF If you have the PDF version of a journal article, EndNote may be able to find the citation information and create a reference from the PDF. The journal must have the DOI included in the article for EndNote to be able to locate the citation information. Many journals include the DOI, although some do not.
