Extend the Power of your Endnote Desktop Program by Signing Up for Endnote Online

Posted on by

If you haven’t done so recently, it is time to take a new look at EndnoteTM Online, formerly Endnote Web. EndnoteTM Online, a cloud-based version of the Endnote bibliographic citation management program, can be used as a stand-alone product or – better yet – to expand the capabilities of the already super useful Endnote desktop program.

What can you do with EndnoteTM Online that you cannot do with Endnote desktop alone?

  • Share Read/Write privileges to your EndnoteTM Online library with up to 15 others.
  • Use EndnoteTM Online’s unlimited cloud storage to store your personal full-text article PDFs. (Please note that due to copyright, the PDF attachments cannot be shared with others; only the citation information in the EndnoteTM Online library may be shared.)
  • Add citations to your Endnote library from anywhere you have Internet access – regardless of whether the device you are using has the Endnote desktop program loaded onto it or not.
  • Create mirror versions of your Endnote library on your desktop and in the cloud simply by clicking on the sync button when you are in the Endnote desktop version.
  • Use either version of Endnote to insert citations into your manuscript/paper. (Please note that you will need to download the “cite while you write” plug-in to computers that don’t already have the desktop version’s Endnote tab/macro in MS Word or set your preferences to either desktop or online on devices that do.

MSK Riders Leading the NYC Bike-to-Work Challenge and More MSK in the News…

  • According to a May 10 Metro News article, MSK employees have embraced Transportation Alternatives’ Bike to Work Challenge, “racking up 1470 miles across the city” in the first ten days. And it is not too late to join – the challenge ends on May 22.
  • On another healthy note, MSK counts itself among one of the workplaces that is a member of the Farmigo community, as was mentioned in a recent Forbes interview with the startup. Farmigo is a company that delivers healthy, farm-fresh food to consumers where they work.
  • On May 6, five MSK nurses and one patient care technician were honored with Rudin Awards for their outstanding service: Natalie Bell, Jaime McNally, Ethel Oliphant, Erica Fischer-Cartlidge, Rhonda D’Agostino, and Kimberly Chow.
  • MSK research collaborations with other cancer centers also made the news this week:
    1. The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Boston Children’s Cancer and Blood Disorders Center joined a clinical trial led by MSK that will use gene therapy techniques to harness the power of pediatric patients’ own immune system to fight their leukemia.
    2. MSK’s Dr. Omar Abdel-Wahab collaborated with scientists at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and Yale University on research that revealed that a gene mutation that alters RNA splicing is likely responsible for myelodysplastic syndrome, a condition which can be a precursor to acute myeloid leukemia.
    3. Project Data Sphere, a cancer clinical trial research data sharing/integrating/analyzing technology initiative that MSK has been contributing to, turned 1 year-old on May 11.
