EndNote Combined Workshop | November 12; 1 to 3 p.m.
EndNote is citation management software which can help you manage, organize and use your research literature. It integrates with Microsoft Word (and selected other word processing software) so that you can "cite-while-you-write" using your choice of citation styles.

Anyone wishing to use EndNote on their own laptop during training sessions should have the software already installed.
The EndNote Combined workshop covers the following:

- How to build a library of citations
