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 VU email)
EndNote 20 Desktop Version (can purchase through VU Software Store)
There are various ways to build an EndNote Library (basically, a database to store references for deployment in documents), including
adding the references by manual entry
connecting to, searching, and downloading references directly from a remote database using the connection file/online search feature
saving the results of a database search and using a specific import filter to add them to your library
