CHEM 5395: Fundamentals of Research: EndNote

Installing EndNote for:

Personal Computers  |  Texas State-owned Mac computers  |  Texas State-owned Windows computers  |  EndNote Web

For installation questions, contact ITAC at (512) 245-4822 or email them at itac@txstate.edu

Some Windows users have reported that they get an error after downloading the software installer in which the PC prevents an unrecognized app from running. Contact ITAC for assistance, or follow these instructions:

 

EndNote 20 is coming soon! Visit the EndNote website to see how EndNote 20 desktop software compares to the previous versions.

Because many faculty, staff, and students are in the process of transitioning from RefWorks to EndNote this spring, the University Libraries and ITAC will roll out the new version of the desktop software--plus new training material--in fall 2021. EndNote 20 will have a visual upgrade but its functionality will remain mostly the same as X9, so you can continue to download, use, and learn more about EndNote X9 and EndNote Online until the new version is available to you. Your existing library will transfer over whenever you choose to install the updated software. Contact Ask a Librarian with any questions.

 

Accessing EndNote Online

To access EndNote Online, go to http://myendnoteweb.com. 

  • Click on the “Not a member yet? Register” button.
  • Use any email address to sign up for your account. If you plan to continue using EndNote Web after you leave the university, you may not want to use your @txstate.edu email address. 
  • You will need to sync your account with the EndNote Desktop application to upgrade your subscription and gain access to more features. See the handouts linked below for more information, or Ask a Librarian.
