EndNote 21 Now Available to Campus
Chandler Smith, MA, Education Librarian
LSU Health New Orleans Division of Libraries is excited to announce that EndNote 21, citation management software, has been purchased for the entire campus in collaboration with LSU Health New Orleans IT. Citation managers are software that collect records or citations from research databases (indexes, catalogs, etc.) that you can then organize for your research. Citation manager software saves time and makes organizing your research easy by:
- Generating bibliographies in various formats
- Making the in-text citation process easier
- Providing collaborative features to share your references with other researchers
- Managing PDF articles
- Helping you find duplicate citations
- Organizing your citations into folders.
The Libraries have created a LibGuide on citation managers, which contains information about the two citation managers LSU Health New Orleans Libraries supports, including:
- The installation and sign-up process for EndNote 21 and RefWorks
- Information about other free and popular citation managers such as Zotero
- Text guides and video tutorials about how to operate EndNote and RefWorks.
The Libraries demonstrated EndNote 21 for IT Office Hours in July, and a recording of that demonstration can be found here: EndNote 21 IT Office Hours. In the future, the Libraries will continue to teach classes on RefWorks and EndNote, so please keep an eye out for when these classes are offered.
Please reach out to us at reference@lsuhsc.edu with any questions about citation managers or if you would like to request training.
