What is ENDNOTE WEB?

AIT Library has a subscription to the ENDNOTE WEB software available for students and staff of AIT.

EndNote Web is a bibliographic management product on the Web. With an EndNote Web account, users can manage references, cite references in papers and create bibliographies without too many headaches. Please note that EndNote Web is a free, web-based version of the desktop version ENDNOTE and provides a reduced range of features.

Stores up to 10,000 references in your own password-protected library.
Output Styles - Format references in hundreds of bibliographic styles (e.g. AIT Harvard)
Cite-While-You-Write functionality allows you to quickly import and format references in a (word) document.

How to Sign Up:

1. Click on the link for ENDNOTE WEB on the library homepage
2. Click on the link for Sign Up and follow the instructions provided.

The EndnoteWeb website includes interactive tutorials providing an overview on using this product. The library also has a tutorial available via the library webpage.

Welcome Post

Hello all,

Welcome to the Library's EndNote Web and Harvard Referencing blog. This blog will be used to provide help and tips in using the web version of the EndNote reference management software.

EndNote Web can help you manage the references you collect for your assignment and automatically format your bibliography into the referencing style required by your department (e.g. AIT Harvard or Vancouver).

I will use the questions that have already come through from many staff and students as a basis for this blog but the names of those sending in questions will not be displayed!
