Warnings!

  • EndNote libraries are made up of two parts: the .enl file and the .Data folder. These two parts MUST be kept together; both are needed for the library to work correctly.
  • EndNote libraries should NEVER be stored in cloud folders such as Dropbox or OneDrive. This will corrupt your library. 
  • It is strongly recommended to have ONE EndNote library and to create Group sets and Groups to organize your references. 

If you have questions or need further assistance, Ask a Librarian or schedule a one-on-one session with a Librarian. 

  

Things To Remember!

  • EndNote does not replace the style manual.

  • Check your import results, mainly when working with sources that may have inconsistent data.
