Endnote classes
The Library runs 60 minute Endnote introductory classes each term as part of the Library training programme. For details and online booking see the Information Skills Training page|
Classes are taught using Endnote version X4. Some staff may have a previous version, usually Endnote 9.01 or X1.01. You should ask your Academic Support Team to upgrade your PC.
The course requires access to the EndNote file SAMPLE.ENL and the Word document COURSE.DOC used in the exercises. When you start EndNote these files will be present in the EndNote X4 folder.
Library staff are happy to arrange specific courses for academic departments-please contact your Liaison Librarian| to discuss available options.
