Access to EndNote

EndNote is software that helps you to collect and manage all the references you have found from different sources. You can use EndNote to insert and format in-text citations and bibliographies within Microsoft Word documents.

How to access EndNote

The different ways to access the EndNote software at the University of Leeds are:

• in all University cluster computers and on your personal computer or laptop (Windows and Mac).
• through the Windows Virtual Desktop
• through an EndNote Online account – this has fewer features than the desktop version but allows you to sync your library between different devices and access it from a browser.
• using an EndNote app for iPad – with limited functionality.
