QUT has moved to Endnote X8 so it is available now to Download on both your QUT Computers and at home. Installation options and links for Help and Training can be found on the Library Website Endnote Page.

New features of X8 include:

• Every X8 library includes a built in ‘Recently Added’ group which can be customised, allowing users to pick up right where they left off in the research workflow
• Share your library with up to 100 other EndNote desktop users on X7.2 or later; providing teams with immediate real time access to the same set of references, attachments, notes and annotations.
• Utilize unlimited file attachment storage in your online library. 

There is an excellent online course on the essential features of using EndNote X8 available on Lynda.com. Access here.
