Create an EndNote X7 Library Open the EndNote program.
In EndNote: File > New
When New Reference Library Window opens, create an EndNote Library at File Name.
Name the EndNote Library, select the Save In location, click Save.
The file type is EndNote Library (*.enl).
What is the EndNote Library?
An EndNote Library is a file with the extension ENL with a corresponding DATA folder created automatically with
the ENL file. The ENL file and the DATA folder may be stored like any other file, including copying a backup. The
DATA file hold PDF, sound files, and video files attached to references in the Library. The Library collects and holds
references transferred online from files or databases, or created manually.
EndNote Library panels The EndNote Library window contains four panels that can be configured using the Layout link in the lower right-
hand corner of the window (Groups “Left” / Reference Panel “Right” is displayed below). Choosing Layout of
Reference Panel Right – Split or Reference Panel Bottom - Split will display the PDF tab in a separate panel.
Edit > Preferences to customize EndNote “Display Fields” and “Display
Fonts” – other features may also be configured.
The Search Panel link in the upper right-hand corner can be toggled to either Show
or Hide that specific panel as needed; toggling to Hide the rarely-used Search Panel
is a good way to manage screen space.

Standardize journal title names in every Library
An EndNote Output Style refers to how a reference is formatted in a References section of a journal
article or a bibliography. There are hundreds of Output Styles – examples are “APA 6th,” “New England
Journal of Medicine,” “JAMA,” “Stroke,” etc.)
APA 6th
van Werkhoven, J. M., Schuijf, J. D., Gaemperli, O., Jukema, J. W., Boersma, E., Wijns, W., . . . Bax, J. J. (2009). Prognostic value of multislice computed tomography and gated single-photon emission computed tomography in patients with suspected coronary artery disease. Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 53(7), 623-632. doi: 10.1016/j.jacc.2008.10.043
Stroke
1. van Werkhoven JM, Schuijf JD, Gaemperli O, Jukema JW, Boersma E, Wijns W, et al. Prognostic value of multislice computed tomography and gated single-photon emission computed tomography in patients with suspected coronary artery disease. J. Am. Coll. Cardiol. 2009;53:623-632
Journal names in some Output Styles may be full (APA 6th):
Journal of the American College of Cardiology
Journal names in some Output Styles may be abbreviated (Stroke): J. Am. Coll. Cardiol.
Problem: databases send full and abbreviated journal names inconsistently to the EndNote record,
creating an unstable Journal Term List for the EndNote Library. This means abbreviated journal names
appear in the Full Journal column of the Journal Term List, and full journal names appear incorrectly in
the Abbreviated Journal column of the Journal Term List. The formatting of full and abbreviated journal
names in Word documents are inconsistent when the source of the journal names are databases.
Solution: override the database-provided journal names by importing the Medical Journal Terms List
into the EndNote Library, and then freezing the updating of the Journal Term List for the EndNote
Library. It is a best practice to import the Medical Journal Terms List into the empty EndNote Library
before populating the library with references.
Importing the Medical Journal Terms List into an EndNote Library will provide the proper journal
names to over 13K journal titles;
the Medical List is based on the National Library of Medicine’s official names and abbreviations
of journals.
To view an EndNote Library’s Journal Terms List Tools > Term Lists > Journal Terms List
Each EndNote Library has its own Journal Terms List
If an EndNote Library contains references and the Medical Journal Terms List has not been imported into
the EndNote Library, delete the Library’s existing Journal Terms List: Tools > Open Term Lists > Journals Term List
Select all titles, click Delete Term; close List.
When creating NEW Libraries or when a Library has an empty Journals Term List, import the Medical
Journals Term List:
EndNote X7 WINDOWS / May 2015 Peter Shipman pshipman@gru.edu
PAGE 4 OF 18
Tools > Define Term Lists highlight Journals and click Import List
C:\ProgramFiles\EndNoteX7\TermLists highlight Medical.txt and click Open.
Click OK; click Close in the Term Lists window.
To FREEZE updating of future journal name changes in the Journal Terms List for the EndNote Library: Edit > Preferences > Term Lists
uncheck “Update lists when importing or pasting references”
uncheck “Update lists during data entry”
Click OK
EndNote Library Modes to work inside or outside the Library
Three icons designating a specific mode appear in the upper left-hand corner of
EndNote:
Book icon – Local Library Mode - preferred default – depress icon to engage
Globe icon – Online Search Mode (Temporary Library) – use sparingly
Globe + Books icon – Integrated Library and Online Search Mode - avoid
Why Local Library Mode is preferred: EndNote encourages Online Search Mode to transfer database
records to an EndNote Library, essentially searching the database from the Search Panel in EndNote.
Searching from the Search Panel is discouraged because it only works with free databases (i.e. PubMed).
Other useful Greenblatt Library databases are subscription-based and the Online Search Mode and the
Intregrated Library and Online Search Mode do not work. Solution: do all searching of databases outside
of the EndNote program.
Exporting (i.e. Direct Export) from database to Library
Exporting is the preferred choice to transfer records from a database to an EndNote Library. While
exporting records is normally a reliable method that is fairly easy to do, some users may not be able to
export records in all instances because of operating systems, choice of browser, personal computer
settings, or database limitations.
Open an EndNote Library to receive the records. Search the database and mark records to be
transferred to the EndNote Library. Follow the steps to export the record to EndNote.
Commonly used biomedical databases that Export records to EndNote
PubMed: Send To > Choose Destination: Citation manager, click Create File
CINAHL Plus: Open Folder View > Direct Export in RIS Format
Ovid MEDLINE: Export link > Export to EndNote > Complete Reference > click Export Citations
Web of Science: send references to the Marked List > Step 2. Output Records (also select Abstract
content), Step 3. Send to EndNote desktop
SciFinder: Click “Export” at top menu bar. In Export window, move radio buttons as needed,
Export: Selected; For: Citation Manager – Citation export format (*.ris); click Export button.

Traveling Library export from Word document to Library
When EndNote references are inserted into Word documents, such a Word document is embedded with
the core EndNote reference information and Word document is termed as containing and EndNote
Traveling Library. When this Word document is shared with research colleagues also using similar
versions of EndNote, the embedded EndNote records (the Traveling Library) in the Word document can
be exported to a colleague’s EndNote Library.
EndNote X7 WINDOWS / May 2015 Peter Shipman pshipman@gru.edu
PAGE 6 OF 18
Open the Word document.
In the Word ribbon on top of the document, click the EndNote X7 tab.
At the pull-down menu at Export to EndNote, select Export Traveling Library.
When the Export Traveling Library window opens, use the
pull-down menu or Browse options to locate the EndNote
Library to receive the references. Click OK.
Export PubMed records to Library 1. Open the EndNote Library to receive PubMed
records.
2. Open PubMed from the Greenblatt Library home
page.
3. Search PubMed. At search results pages, check the
records to be exported from PubMed to the
Library (see image at right).
4. At top of search result page, click Send to pull-
down menu. Select Citation manager, and click
Create File.
5. Records should transfer and display in the open EndNote Library. Each browser may handle the export in
a different manner.

Importing to Library
EndNote permits the importing of properly formatted files or even folders of files into a Library.
Import from PDF
In some instances, EndNote can scrape information from a PDF - creating an EndNote reference and
attaching the PDF to the EndNote reference (storing the PDF in the Library’s DATA folder). Some of
references imported this way are equivalent to information from a database record, and some of the
information is much less than the database record. Sometimes no information can be scraped from the
PDF into an EndNote reference, often from books or white papers, and should be entered into EndNote
manually.
The process for PDF import:
Open an EndNote Library File > Import > File
OR File > Import > Folder (of PDFs)
At Import File window:
Import File: (Choose PDF)
Import Option: PDF
Click Import.
When to Import from database
When Export does not transfer database records directly to an EndNote Library, or when not at a
workstation with the EndNote program, save database search results in a properly formatted file and
Import the records into an EndNote Library.
EndNote X7 WINDOWS / May 2015 Peter Shipman pshipman@gru.edu

Adding references manually to Library
Some records or sources for a document are not present in a database and EndNote references have to
be created manually:
Open the EndNote Library.
References > New Reference
At the New Reference window, select a Reference Type from the pull-down menu (Journal
Article is the default); other common Reference Types are web page and edited book.
Enter information into the fields of the record.
Each author gets a separate line; place a comma after any group author.
Close the New Reference window to save the record to the Library.
Editing EndNote references (repairing improper data or adding data to a Library reference)
Because data elements are not always uniform in databases, or as database records are modified over
time such as those in PubMed that undergo processing and final indexing, EndNote references should
be inspected for quality so the reference inserted into a Word document is formatted properly by
EndNote. Below is a group author with a comma that needs moving:
Plain Text
options
EndNote X7 WINDOWS / May 2015 Peter Shipman pshipman@gru.edu
PAGE 10 OF 18
Other parts of EndNote references that often require editing:
- Title in Headline Format should be edited to sentence format
- Author names should follow Last, First format
- DOI information should only contain the number
- Author names with suffixes require a second comma
Attaching PDFs to an EndNote reference
PDFs can be inserted into the File Attachments field of an EndNote reference manually or by applying
the Find Full Text feature in EndNote.
File Attachments enhancement EndNote documentation indicates up to forty-five (45) files may be attached to a single EndNote reference. Sound files and video files may also be added to the File Attachment field.
Manual method: Cut/Paste or Drag/Drop the PDF into the File Attachments field of the EndNote
reference.
Find Full Text: set-up Preferences to use the Library’s link resolver to attach PDFs to the EndNote
reference.
NOT ALL PUBLISHERS ALLOW ENDNOTE TO MINE PDF FULL-TEXT DOCUMENTS; NOT ALL LIBRARY- OWNED FULL-
TEXT CONTENT CAN BE LOCATED USING THE “FIND FULL TEXT” METHOD IN ENDNOTE.
Edit > Preferences > Find Full Text
Insert the Open URL Path http://sfx.galib.uga.edu/sfx_med1 At the “Authenticate with” field, insert the URL http://ezproxy.gru.edu/login?url= Click Apply. Click OK.

Output Styles – format citations in a Word document to a specified style
EndNote contains hundreds of output styles to take the data from an EndNote reference and insert that
data in a Word document in the specified style: examples would be JAMA, New England Journal of
Medicine, APA 6th, Vancouver, etc. Create a custom menu of desired Output Styles in EndNote; EndNote
loads several default styles. To select or deselect an Output Style from the menu in EndNote:
Edit > Output Styles > Open Style Manager
Check or un-check Output Styles [image at left] to appear in EndNote menu bar [image at right].
Cite While You Write – inserting citations in a Word document
Installing EndNote X7 enables EndNote’s Cite While You Write in Microsoft Word (2007, 2010, 2013); an
EndNote X7 tab appears in the MS Word ribbon. Cite While You Write inserts and embeds the EndNote
reference in the Word document and outputs the reference in the Output Style selected.
EndNote X7 WINDOWS / May 2015 Peter Shipman pshipman@gru.edu
PAGE 14 OF 18
Edit and Manage References in the Word document to change formatting
Because EndNote X7 embeds coded information into a Word document, do not attempt to use the
keyboard to overwrite or delete embedded content. In Word, at the EndNote X7 tab, always use Edit &
Manage Citation(s) to modify or remove references inserted in the document.
The Edit & Manage Citations window permits:
the removal of the reference from the document;
when multiple references share the same insertion point, allow a reordering of the references
when the Output Style allows;
editing the display of in-text elements at the insertion point, such as year of publication or
author name(s), when the Output Style allows.
The Edit & Manage Citations windows has two panes: the upper panel removes or reorders References,
the lower panel modifies the in-text appearance of References.

EndNote Manuscript Templates to quickly setup Word in a specific Output Style
To save time in the formatting of the Word document, EndNote contains several Word Manuscript
Templates. The Templates are found at the Tools menu and at the EndNote Support web site. When
opening the templates, enable the set-up wizard to add title, author, etc. information easily. For
example, a formatted APA 6th Word template with author, title, running head, headings, etc. can be set
up in less than ten minutes.
PDF Handling – setup Preferences to hold PDFs in a specific folder
In EndNote Preferences, (Edit > Preferences > PDF Handling) a specific folder can be
designated to hold new PDF’s. When new PDF’s are added to the designated folder, an open EndNote
Library can have references imported automatically from information scraped from the new PDF’s; the
PDF’s could then be attached to the corresponding EndNote reference by cut/paste or drag/drop.
The Search Panel can not only search any part of the EndNote reference, but it can search any text in a
PDF File Attached to the EndNote Reference.
When the PDF tab in the Tabs Panel for a reference is selected, a toolbar in the Tabs Panel allows the
saving, printing, and emailing of the PDF, as well as a highlighting tool and a sticky note tool to annotate
the PDF document. A search box is also present to search the PDF toolbar.
Back Up Libraries
keep several copies of critical EndNote Libraries and Word documents
do not actively use or store an EndNote library in a cloud environment or in a distant server to
avoid corruption of the Library; an active working EndNote program should only be accessed
from a computer’s hard drive. (EndNote documentation is contradictory on this point.)
back up EndNote Libraries to an external hard drive or thumb drive.

File > Save A Copy to create a backup of the ENL and DATA files
To send a library as an email attachment File > Compressed Library > Create will
compress the ENL and DATA files to single file, in an ENLX format:
o keep ENLX file size down by not including File Attachments when compressing (4GB
limit)
o those receiving ENLX click to open the Library into the ENL and DATA portions
EndNote Online - server-based EndNote from Web of Science
EndNote X7 is workstation-based; for a more portable server-based version of EndNote, go to Web of
Science and download EndNote [Online]. At the Web of Science database, click EndNote and register
with gru.edu email address. It provides an option for saving Web of Science content into EndNote
Online.
Miscellaneous facts about Libraries
There is no limit to the size of a Library; there are limits to the size of a Library that needs to be
compressed to attach to an email or store.
Each Reference in a Library is unique to that Library and is numbered sequentially as they are
brought into a Library.
Libraries can be moved, but always move the ENL file and corresponding DATA folder together.
Libraries can be renamed, but remember to rename the DATA folder as well.
Libraries can be deleted, but remember to delete both the ENL file and the DATA folder.
Only one person can work in a Library at a time.
More than one Library can be open at the same time.
Libraries can be imported (as described earlier in this document), but copy/paste and drag/drop
work well.
MS PowerPoint contains an EndNote X7 tab that allows the insertion of the reference onto a
PPT slide.
See Edit > Preferences > Folder Locations to view the location of (Output) Styles,
Filters, and Connection Files. As some of these files are updated, go to the EndNote Support site
to download the updated file and replace the outdated file in the appropriate folder.
In the References Tab, click on column headers to toggle the sorting of references. For example,
clicking on Author column will toggle A-Z or Z-A by first author’s last name; clicking on Title will
toggle the alphabetical order of the title information.
References > Find Duplicates to locate potentially duplicate records in an EndNote
Library; however, deleting any EndNote references used previously in Word documents will
break the link between the Library and that reference in the document.
