Citing Resources (EndNote)

EndNote is a software tool for publishing and managing bibliographies. Using this product, writers save countless hours of typing and interpreting style requirements when creating bibliographies for curricula vitae, manuscripts, thesis/dissertations, grant proposals, term papers and other publications.

With either EndNote software or EndNote Online you can do the following:

1. Collect references from electronic and traditional sources.
2. Organize your references for your research topics and papers.
3. Create a formatted bibliography for your paper or cite references while you write.

EndNote Desktop Software

The School of Medicine has a site license for EndNote software, and EndNote desktop is available to SIU Medicine students, residents, faculty, and staff. These licenses expire upon departure from SIU.

Request the software from techsupport@siumed.edu. In your request, specify whether it is to be installed on an SIU or personal  computer.

EndNote Online

EndNote Online, a web-based version of Endnote, is available to SIU School of Medicine users through the Library's subscription to Web of Science. EndNote Online is also available to individuals who have purchased a copy of the EndNote software program.

For your convenience, each module includes a Table of Contents (ToC) and Closed Captions (CC). If the ToC disrupts the viewing experience, turn it off by clicking the bulleted list icon in the lower right of the play bar. 

You can also drag the CC around the screen if necessary or desired.

EndNote's "Find Full Text" feature is not compatible with Open Athens, the Library's authentication service, but you can link EndNote to the SIU Medical Library's Open URL to help search the Library's holdings for articles of interest.

Edit/EndNote Menu --> Preferences --> Find Full Text

Open URL Path: https://i-share-SIM.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/openurl/01CARLI_SIM/01CARLI_SIM:CARLI_SIM?
Authenticate With: Leave blank

To search the library's holdings for an EndNote reference, select the reference, open the Reference Menu --> URLs --> Open URL. This will open an internet browser to the Primo VE page for the article. Log in with your Open Athens credentials. If the Library has the article in our collection there will be a link to download the article full text. If it is not, you can use the "Request article via ILL" link to open an Interlibrary Loan request form, then copy and paste the citation information to the form.
