EndNote is citation management software which allows users to save references from databases (Medline, PubMed, CINAHL, etc) and other sources, organize them, and automatically format them into in-text citations and bibliographies in manuscripts.
EndNote training workshops are offered regularly by MUHC librarians. Consult the Upcoming Workshops page to register.
