EndNote 20

Introduction
EndNote (produced by Clarivate) is a citation management tool that moves you through the research process as you search, organize, write, publish and share your work. Whether you're writing a paper or manuscript, leading a research project, maintaining a CV, teaching a course or applying for a grant, EndNote can help.
EndNote lets you ...
- store, organize, and manage references in your own personal and searchable library
- import reference data from online databases such as MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar and more
- create rules to automatically organize references as you work
- read, review, annotate and search PDF files
- find full text in both subscription and open access resources
- identify and remove duplicate content
- insert citations while writing a paper
- create and format bibliographies using various output styles (e.g., APA, Chicago, MLA, Vancouver)
- share some or all of your references with collaborators and colleagues
- manage team access and track activity and changes
NOTES:
- McMaster has a site license for EndNote software (Windows or macOS) that is available to current McMaster employees and students for download (at no cost). EndNote has both a desktop (i.e., EndNote 21) and web component (i.e., EndNote Web for EndNote 21 desktop users).
If working on a systematic review, also consider using Covidence, a web-based software platform that streamlines the production of systematic reviews. It supports citation screening, full text review, risk of bias assessment, and more. McMaster provides unlimited access to university affiliates.
