EndNote

Welcome!

EndNote is a sophisticated bibliographic management software tool for researchers creating an extensive library of sources and citing the sources in publications and theses. If you are needing to cite a handful (e.g. less than 20) of different sources you might want to consider something like Microsoft Word’s in-built referencing tool. Whether you select EndNote or another referencing tool understanding the principles of referencing is essential for making the most of such tools. We recommend the Deakin Guide to Referencing as the first port of call.

Important

Please make sure to back up your EndNote library by saving a compressed copy before upgrading to EndNote 20.

  • It is especially important to create a compressed backup if you are currently using EndNote X9.2 or earlier.
  • The most recent version of EndNote until now was X9.3. Some users of X9.2 or earlier have found it necessary to open a compressed copy of their library in order to convert to X9.3 or EndNote 20.  

If you are using a Deakin-managed PC, it is recommended that you DO NOT save your EndNote library on the H:Drive (Desktop or Documents folder). The H:Drive is a network drive which will affect the conversion of an EndNote library to the new EN20 format.
