Who is eligible to receive the desktop version of EndNote?
All WCM faculty, staff, and students are eligible to receive a free copy of EndNote’s desktop version, but only on an ITS-tagged device. Our licensing allows you to install a copy of EndNote on up to two devices, one of which can be a personal device.
You can also set up an account to access the web version of EndNote. You can create any login you would like (i.e., does not have to include your CWID).
How do I download a copy of EndNote?
Our licensing agreement with EndNote does not allow our users to install the software themselves. However, ITS can install a copy of EndNote on your tagged device, at no cost to you, at the SMARTDesk or by remotely logging into your computer.
Contact our Service Desk and ask one of our technicians for assistance in installing EndNote on your device.
How do I access the web version of EndNote?
Visit www.myendnoteweb.com and log in. If it’s your first time accessing EndNote online, you will need to create an account on the WCM network by connecting on campus or via VPN. You can create any username and password you would like.
Can I get EndNote if I work or study at WCM, but am on an NYP computer?
The desktop version of EndNote can only be installed on an ITS-tagged device. However, if you are part of WCM, you can still use the web version of EndNote by visiting www.myendnoteweb.com. Make sure you have already set up an EndNote account on our network before using the web version.
What is the difference between EndNote’s web and desktop versions?
Both versions enable you to search, save, and organize your references. The desktop version has more features than the web version, which are listed on EndNote’s website.
Is there a limit to the number of references I can have in my EndNote account?
If you are using the web version only, you can have up to 50,000 references stored in your account. The desktop version allows for unlimited reference storage.
If I leave to another institution, do my EndNote References stay with me?
Yes, if your new institution offers EndNote.
Which bibliographic styles does EndNote support?
EndNote currently supports over 6,000 output styles, making it easy for you to set up your bibliography the way you want it. Many styles are preloaded in the desktop client. A full list of styles is available on the EndNote website, which is also available for download to your desktop client.
