EndNote: Cite While You Write

A guide to using EndNote X9

Cite While You Write

When it comes to writing down your research, EndNote is really useful in helping you cite references properly in your text, and creating a bibliography for you. You need to have Word and EndNote installed on your computer, and have the citations you want to use in your EndNote library.

When EndNote is installed on your computer, you can see an EndNote tab at the top of the screen. This menu allows you to insert your references in your Word document. You will need to have your EndNote library open at all times to allow you to insert your references.

Click on the EndNote Tool bar in the top menu. Move your cursor over the options to get a short explanation of the functions.
