The Scientific business of Thomson Reuters shipped a major upgrade to EndNote for Windows - the bibliographic management software used by millions of researchers, librarians and students worldwide. Millions of researchers, scholarly writers, students, and librarians use EndNote (patent pending) to search online bibliographic databases, organize their references, images and PDFs in any language, and create bibliographies and figure lists instantly.
EndNote X2 continues a 20-year tradition of innovation by introducing a full text locator for references, Smart Groups for instant reference sorting, and an expanded "Groups" panel to centralize collection and organization activities - saving users time and allowing them to concentrate on their research. Instead of spending hours typing bibliographies, or using index cards to organize their references, they do it the easy way—by using EndNote! EndNote for Windows and Macintosh is a valuable all-in-one tool that integrates the following tasks into one program.
"EndNote X2 is the only bibliographic management product to deliver high-impact features such as finding full text and Smart Groups that eliminate tasks for users," stated Keith MacGregor, EVP Academic and Government Markets, Thomson Reuters. "Coupled with EndNote Web, users can collaborate efficiently on the Web and desktop with direct connectivity to the high quality resources in ISI Web of Knowledge."
EndNote X2 locates full text articles for references. The user simply selects one or more references, a group or an entire library, and EndNote scans online sources for available full text. Once found, EndNote downloads and attaches the article PDF file to the appropriate reference automatically, all while the user continues working.
In EndNote, bibliographic data is entered into a record by filling out a simple template that has the proper fields displayed for a given type of reference. There are 46 customizable reference types, covering a variety of materials from Ancient Texts to Web Pages, each with up to 52 fields for entering references and linking to PDF and image files. And you can organize references in any Unicode-supported language. EndNote will locate and download full text for you—no additional steps required! Select one or more references, a group, or your entire library and have EndNote scan for full text available to you. When the full text is found, EndNote downloads and links it to the appropriate reference automatically—while you continue with your work.
EndNote X2 features:
- Create Smart Groups based on user criteria for automatic sorting of references as they're added to an EndNote library
- Search favorite online resources and library catalogs instantly
- Retrieve deleted references from the Trash group
- Transfer groups between EndNote Web and EndNote easily
