EndNote X8 is designed to work with Windows 7 to Windows 10, and with Macintosh OS X 10.10, Yosemite, to the new OS X 10.12, Sierra.
For those who don’t know what EndNote is and what it does, you can find more information on the EndNote LibGuide.
Windows users
The file download comes as a Zip folder. You need to extract the files before you install the ENX8Inst.msi file. To do this, click Extract All at the top of the file window.
If you are upgrading from a
previous version of EndNote, don’t forget to back up your libraries and edited
styles and then uninstall the old EndNote before installing the new version.
What's New?
New look icons
The icons are now the
same across both operating systems and are also more intuitive.
For example, a quotation
mark indicates a command to insert citations and a PDF icon inside a magnifying
glass starts Find Full Text to search for PDFs matching the selected records.
New Reference Update
features
Use Find Reference
Updates to update an entire set of references without verifying the update for
each record individually. There is also a new option to edit the updated
reference manually.
New tools in the Groups panel
The Configure Sync button will appear in
libraries that do not sync with EndNote online. Use this command to set up EndNote
Sync for a library.
Only one desktop library
can be synced to your online account. Configuring sync for a new library will
merge the libraries together. If you merge libraries, use the last library you synced
as your new library.
The Recently Added tool shows references
added to the library in the last 24 hours, 7 days, 14 days, or 30 days. Right
click on the group to change the time period.
Improved Library Sharing
With EndNote X8 you
can now share your library with up to 100 other EndNote X7 or X8 users. Everyone
sharing a library has editing rights.
You can only share
your library with people who have access to the desktop version of EndNote.
Activity Feed for library changes
An activity feed is
available for each shared library, whether the library has been shared with you
or you are the owner of the library. The feed will show changes made in EndNote
on the desktop or iPad by all those sharing the library. It will not show
changes made in EndNote online.
