After the EndNote Web Update on June 12, 2011, it is necessary for Web of Knowledge users to log into Web of Knowledge (on campus or via proxy) and select "EndNote" on the top menu to access their account. This resets roaming access for one year.
Some users after doing this might not see their styles, filters and connections restored. These people should email EndNote Web technical support with their EndNote Web account email and institution. Support will reset their roaming access.
You can synchronize your library in EndNote X6 or later with your library in EndNote Web. The Sync process automatically synchronizes both sets of references so that an exact match exists in both EndNote and EndNote Web.
The Sync process is always initiated from EndNote (not EndNote Web).
You may need to download and install an update the first time you sync EndNote Web with the EndNote client. Note that downloading and installing this update can take a long time.
EndNote Web is a bibliographic management software. This software will store, create, and manage your citation information and format and insert the citations for you into a Microsoft Word document. You still must learn the rules of your citation style(s) so that you can tell EndNote when to make an exception.
EndNote Web offers the functionality of EndNote in an online version available at any computer. EndNote Web is a different software than the EndNote client that you install on your computer. It is owned by same company as the EndNote client and it performs some of the same functions but it does so differently. EndNote Web is a newer application and is still being developed and improved.
EndNote is very useful if you will be writing many papers or if you are working on a long-term research project where you expect to collect many, many citations. However, it does take time to learn so do not try to learn EndNote for a paper due only a few days later.
To use EndNote Web, you must create an account and login with your personally selected EndNote username and password.
To create an account, go to ISU's subscription of Web of Science and click on the MyEndNote Web link at the top of the window. After you have registered, you may access MyEndNote Web directly using the URL below.
To add records to your EndNote Web Library, save records to a file as if you were going to import them into EndNote software using a filter and upload them later.
