Access to EndNote

EndNote Click

EndNote Click (formerly Kopernio) is a browser plugin that aims to make it quicker and easier to access PDFs of journal articles. It works by connecting you with the library’s journal subscriptions and open access versions of articles by presenting a simple one-click ‘View PDF’ button on any academic website. 

Benefits of using EndNote Click

  • Log in to EndNote Click with your library credentials to provide fast access to PDFs in your browser without having to enter more passwords or visit additional websites.
  • One-click access to PDFs via a consistent ‘View PDF’ button, rather than hunting for a link to full text.
  • Works with 100s of academic websites and databases including Pubmed, Web of Science and publisher’s websites.
  • Export the PDF together with the reference details to EndNote or EndNote Online.
  • Choose to read, download, save, export, cite PDFs, or store them in the EndNote Click Locker for easy access. 

Things to know about EndNote Click 

  • You can end up with duplicate references in your EndNote Library or EndNote Online account if you add them using EndNote Click and import them from online catalogues, databases and website.
  • EndNote Click is not currently integrated with EndNote or EndNote Online as an import or ‘find full text’ option.

Add EndNote Click to Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Opera browsers.
