Citation Management: EndNote

About Endnote 

The EndNote citation management software allows you to create your own personal library of references to books, articles and documents. References can include citation information (author, title, publisher, etc.) as well as annotations, graphics, and even copies of the documents themselves. EndNote then works with Microsoft Word and other word processors to automatically add references to your paper and format your bibliography in the proper style (MLA, APA, Chicago Style, etc.). 

There are 2 Versions of Endnote

  • EndNote Online (sign up for a free account using your vanderbilt.edu or vumc.org email address)

  • EndNote 20 Desktop Version (can purchase through VU & VUMC Software Stores)
