EndNote Clinic – issues raised

Just to report back on a few questions to which I wasn’t sure of the answers in the EndNote workshop today:
Associated data files do automatically transfer when libraries are merged or references are copied and pasted between libraries.
There is not a limit on downloading from Ovid databases
The download from JSTOR in RAS is working ok.

Podcasts for EndNote

We were recommended a URL which includes some podcasts for EndNote. I have listened to both of them featured on the Comupting and Information Services at Texas A & M University. There maybe some scope for us to do something similiar in the future, so would welcome any thoughts from users of EndNote as to whether they think it will be worthwhile.

The beginning of the podcasts refer specifically to how to access EndNote on the desktop at Texas so you may want to skip past that part, but the rest seems useful.

Other Blogs

I have just discovered another blog dedicated solely to EndNote. This is available from the University of Queensland in Australia. It looks like it has some useful links and information regarding EndNote, so it might be worth a look.

If you discover any other useful blogs for EndNote please let us know and we will add them to our resources.
