EndNote Guide

UTA users must set up their account with their official UTA email address, using the authenticated link above. After creating an account, users will be able to log into their account by going to https://www.myendnoteweb.com, no longer needing to use the authenticated link.

Important Note! If you are off campus, a VPN connection is required before beginning these steps. UTA VPN Instructions.

In order to get the most up-to-date and fully featured experience in EndNote Online while not on the UTA campus, first you will need to enable Anytime/Anywhere Access. By following a few simple steps, you will gain access to the full selection of citation styles and import filters offered through UTA's subscription, whereas without Anytime/Anywhere Access, you will have many fewer options. To enable Anytime/Anywhere Access, users must login to their Web of Science account from our authenticated link, above:

1. Go to Web of Science using the link above. You may be required to login with UTA's single sign-on. Once Web of Science is loaded, click “Sign In” at the top, right of the page. Click "Sign In" in the resulting submenu.
   1. Login using the same credentials that you used to create your EndNote account.
2. That’s it! Once you’ve successfully logged in to Web of Science through the authenticated link above, Anytime/Anywhere Access is automatically enabled for one year.
3. Verify that Anytime/Anywhere Access is enabled.
   1. Switch back to EndNote Online.
   2. Hover your cursor over the "Options" tab and select "Subscription" from the resulting dropdown menu.
   3. On the resulting page, you should see that “Roaming” status is enabled, and for how long.

Note: Users must login from the authenticated link above at least once every 365 days to keep Anytime/Anywhere Access active.

1. Close ALL MS Office programs, including Word, Excel, etc.
   1. It is recommended that you also close Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge if you have either of those web browsers open. If you’re viewing this tutorial in either of those browsers, it is recommended that you reopen this tutorial in FireFox, Chrome, or another web browser and close this browser before you proceed.
2. Login to EndNote Online from a non-Microsoft browser and click on the “Downloads” tab.
3. In the “Cite While You Write” box on the left, read the instructions and click the link for the version of Cite While You Write appropriate for your system.
   1. For Windows, only select “Download Windows with Internet Explorer plug-in” if you are a regular user of the Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge web browsers. This version will also install a plugin for those browsers, which is beyond the scope of this tutorial. The version “Download Windows MSI for mass program installation” will only install the Cite While You Write plugin for MS Word. This is the option supported by UTA Libraries.
4. Follow the onscreen prompts for installing the version for your system. You may leave everything set to their default settings, or change them as desired. More detailed installation instructions, explaining the various installation settings, are available at https://www.myendnoteweb.com/help/en_us/ENW/hgs_installingtools.htm.
5. Verify that the installation was successful.
   1. Open a Microsoft Word document. If the installation was successful, you will have a new “EndNote” tab at the top of the document window. Click on the new tab.
   2. When prompted, enter your EndNote login credentials. Once logged in, the EndNote ribbon should appear at the top of the screen. You can now access your EndNote library from within Microsoft Word, allowing you to seamlessly import references into your document using your preferred Bibliographic style and workflow.
