EndNote 8: EndNote Desktop for Windows Users

TPH staff can request EndNote software for work related projects. See Requesting EndNote Software.

This software allows you to:

• import bibliographic citations,
• organize groups of citations,
• generate bibliographies in various citation styles like APA (Currently the preferred style for TPH)
• export citations 
• share groups of references with colleagues  

The Library suggests that EIDM trainees use Endnote to manage screening and citation for their rapid reviews.

Endnote provides a cloud based account for you (EndNote Online). It may be useful after you have become more familiar with Endnote Desktop.  

TPH Staff requiring EndNote software should email hlibrary@toronto.ca. This email will be used to assign a ticket to local IT support. 

Please include the following information in your email:

• Name of staff requiring EndNote
• TPH network ID  (e.g. JSmith)
• Workstation ID (e.g. N2XD # # # # # # #) 
• Location (e.g. 277 Victoria St., 7th floor)
• Telephone Number (On-site contact info preferred)

Supervisors or managers requesting the software for their teams can submit details in a table.

(Note: Please don't place staff at different TPH sites on one IT ticket since tickets are assigned to specific IT staff at a specific location.)

• Library Staff will approve your request and email you a response.
• The approval email will include an approval code for IT Desktop support staff to install Endnote software. 
• You will forward that email to IT Service Desk (itservice@toronto.ca).
• You should then receive a confirmation from itcustomerservice@toronto.ca titled:  "Confirmation - Your IT interaction # SD######## logged".
• IT staff will visit your workstation to install the EndNote software.
• If you are still using Reference Manager, please inform the IT Desktop support staff and have those records transferred into EndNote
