Information services provider Thomson Reuters, US, has released an upgrade to Thomson Reuters EndNote for Windows, a bibliographic management and publishing solution. EndNote X4 is projected to enable researchers to import and search PDF files; use new Cite While You Write features that simplify their writing; and collaborate in new ways using EndNote Web.
EndNote expands its PDF management from finding full text automatically and attaching PDFs to existing records with drag-and-drop to now importing a single PDF file or a folder of PDF files. EndNote X4 extracts basic bibliographic information using the Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) and CrossRef data to create new records in a reference library. Users can also extend their retrieval results beyond reference data by searching attached PDF files.
EndNote X4 is compatible with Microsoft Word 2010 and introduces new formatting options for citing scholarly papers properly. EndNote links in-text citations to the bibliography automatically in Microsoft Word - with or without hyperlinks. Users also have increased options for formatting footnotes with customisable short forms as well as full support of the APA 6th style including a multiple author ellipse. The new combined Edit and Manage Citations command consolidates the most frequently used functions in one Cite While You Write window. Also, users can view a report of references cited in a Word document with a new auto-group in the EndNote library.
Every EndNote user receives their own EndNote Web account for collaborating with others and accessing references when away from the desktop. Users can now transfer up to 10,000 references between the web and desktop, and search shared groups when selecting references to cite. Reference lists can be sorted by times cited, date added to the library or date modified to locate references quickly.
Other features of the upgrade include create new groups by comparing, combining and suppressing existing groups; modify references easily in the new Quick Edit tab on the main library window; edit references when comparing duplicates; expand library retrieval results by adding wildcards within search terms; and Cite While You Write in over 4,500 journal styles.
