Product Description

From the Manufacturer

EndNote is the industry-standard software for organizing references and creating bibliographies. With EndNote X, we are creating a new standard for ease-of-use. And that has millions of students, researchers, writers, and librarians worldwide--jumping for joy!

Organize your PDF files with EndNote libraries

EndNote X introduces a new way to manage your PDF files. Now you can drag-and-drop a PDF file onto an EndNote record saving many steps and creating a link automatically. The PDF files are stored along with the EndNote references. And when you need to move your EndNote library between computers, the new compressed library option creates a single-file backup for easy transport.

View more--or less--detail as desired

EndNote X expands your library view with up to eight fields enabling you to sort columns quickly. A new icon identifies references containing links to PDF and other files. The reference edit window now includes a show/hide empty fields option to reduce scrolling for reference detail.

Other new features:

• Reference-type lists are now alphabetized for locating easily
• Four new reference types--grant, ancient text, dictionary, and encyclopedia
• The "Electronic Source" references type is renamed to "Web Page"
• New--compressed library option creates a single-file backup for moving EndNote libraries between computers
• Store up to 45 links per reference in the "Link to PDF" field
• Convert existing PDF links to the new EndNote-relative link in one step
• Use the PDF icon in the EndNote toolbar to open the first linked file in the highlighted reference
• "Change Text" and "Change Fields" include a new option for tab and carriage returns used in phrases
• Search fields and words using "begins with" and "ends with"--replaces "Use Full Text Index" of previous versions
• "RTF Document Scan" is renamed to "Format Paper"
• Customize library and reference toolbars in Mac OS X version for quick access to frequently used commands
• Identify individual references easily in Spotlight Mac OS X Tiger search results--more descriptive details available

Search and collect references in new ways

EndNote X offers new search options including "begins with" and "ends with" for field and word searching. With continued suggestions from users, EndNote X includes new and updated files for searching online resources, importing references, and formatting bibliographies. You’ll find 800+ connections to online sources, 540+ import filters, and over 2,300 publishing styles!

Note: Endnote X Student Edition is for student use only.

EndNote has stepped up with the new X Student Version. It is easier to use, mostly because of its organization and instruction.

Pricing, seamless searching and archiving still make this the best bibliography and research paper tool. Loading was quick and easy, with no problems - a huge benefit to people not comfortable with loading software.

This was an upgrade for me, so earlier information was ported/accepted without any problems.

Note: this reviewer team rarely gives five star ratings.

This review is from: Researchsoft Endnote X Student Edition for Student Use Only (CD-ROM)

I am a doctoral student and so I am writing papers all the time which require citations and references in APA format. I found free trial versions,tried EndNote and a similar program, and decided that I liked EndNote better. You DO have to know something about APA, but from some databases (such as EbscoHost)you can export all the information you need (including the Abstract if you want it) directly to EndNote. It will save numerous hours of typing and finding typos later. One of the features I liked about EndNote was that it has a field where you can enter up to 64k of your own notes for each reference.

Endnote X was made typing research paper an enjoyable task. It is user friendly with its keyboard shortcuts and technical support assistance. This was the first time I have used citation software and Endnote X made it easy for me to concentrate on the art of writing instead of shuffling through the APA manual to accurately cite a reference. IT IS DEFINITELY A MUST HAVE FOR ANY STUDENT!
