What is EndNote?
EndNote is a bibliographic management program designed to import, store and organise your references. The program can automatically create and format bibliographies and in-text citations in many different referencing styles. An EndNote library may be equated to a file or folder containing the references you have found. A library can contain up to 100,000 references. It is possible to create several libraries, but it is strongly recommended that you work with one library only for a particular assignment or your thesis. If you want to store your references separately for each section/chapter, use the Groups feature. For a more comprehensive guide, please go to http://www.waikato.ac.nz/library/study/guides/endnote
Getting Started The University of Waikato has a site licence that allows students to install EndNote on home computers for free. To download to your personal computer go to http://digital.liby.waikato.ac.nz/endnote/install/ EndNote is installed on the majority of University computers; if EndNote is not installed on a computer you are using, please contact the computer support person for your department/faculty. University computers are updated with the latest filter, connection files and Styles required for correct and current referencing. If you are not using a university computer please ensure that you visit http://digital.liby.waikato.ac.nz/endnote/
