EndNote (My EndNote Web) is an online citation capture and organization tool, which Carthage provides through Web of Science, one of our online databases. With Endnote you can export your citations, organize them, and create a bibliography or works cited page. There is also a plug-in for Microsoft Word, in which you can import citations into your Word document while you write your paper. LIS recommends downloading that plug-in on each browser you will be using.
Once you have created your account, you may access EndNote via the Internet at www.myendnoteweb.com/.
You must create your EndNote account while on campus to ensure that your account can be verified through the Carthage subscription. After the initial on-campus account creation you may access your EndNote account through the following website: www.myendnoteweb.com.
From a browser connected to the Carthage network, go to www.myendnoteweb.com.

Adding Citations to EndNote
You may push citations to your EndNote account from a library database (you do not need to be searching the Web of Science database). After performing a search in the Carthage College Catalog click on an item to access its full record. Near the top of the record, look for the “Cite/Export” link. Click that link and look for “Export to EndNote/Reference Manager” under the “Export a citation” heading.
When you export citations you may be asked by your browser whether you’d like to open of save your .ris file. The options will be different on each browser.
In your EndNote account the records you exported from a database should be in your “Unfiled” references folder.
