New features in EndNote X9

Group sharing
Group sharing now gives you the ability to share your groups with colleagues right from your EndNote desktop with both read-only or read-and-write access. Let your colleagues get right to what they need; they don’t need to sift through your entire library to find what is pertinent to them.
Sharing Permissions
Now you got the ability to choose whether you share a library with full Read-write permissions or the new Read-only mode. You can select the access rights at the time of sharing, or adjust it later, and different access rights can be assigned to different users. Get the peace of mind about sharing your library and don’t have to worry about colleagues making changes to your library.
Updated styles
If your bibliography isn’t formatted correctly, you risk your paper getting rejected, even before it is peer-reviewed. With EndNote X9 you get updates to key styles such as Chicago, AMA, MLA and APA. Now you can select from over 7000 styles to format your bibliography and citations.
New reference types
When adding a new reference, you can now select from new references types from the list of reference options. These new reference types include discussion forum, TV episode, social media, and multimedia applications. No more guessing or making up your own reference types. Cite new types of media with confidence.
Citation Reports
Citation reports from Web of Science help you identify what impact your research is having on your area of study. As a researcher, you want to know if the references you are citing are impactful and relevant. To do this with X8 you needed to leave EndNote and go into Web of Science separately, which is time-consuming and breaks your workflow. With EndNote X9 you can generate a Web of Science citation report by selecting a group from your desktop. Leverage core Web of Science metrics by accessing Citation reports directly from the EndNote X9.
Manuscript Matcher
As a researcher, you need to know what journals are the best fit for your manuscripts, so that you have the best chance of acceptance. Many fields have hundreds of journal options, and it is hard to determine where to submit your paper. With EndNote X9 you can now create a list of journal suggestions for the paper you are writing. Take the guesswork out of journal submission and find the best-fit journals for your paper.

New features in EndNote X8

Shared write access to an EndNote Library

Library Sharing

EndNote Library Sharing

Regardless of whether you want to share an existing EndNote database with others or build a new database as a team, both are easy with Library Sharing.

This is how library sharing works

All participants need an EndNote desktop version and an associated EndNote online account. The person who wants to share their EndNote Library with the others syncs their EndNote Library to their EndNote Online account and then invites the other contributors to share the library via EndNote Desktop. They will receive an email with a link they can use to log into their respective EndNote online account. The invitation is accepted and the shared library can be opened on the computers of the invitees in the EndNote desktop version.

How to set up an EndNote online account in the EndNote desktop version

To create an EndNote online account or to connect your EndNote desktop application to an existing online account, open the EndNote Preferences (Windows: EndNote menu Edit, Macintosh: EndNote menu EndNote) and select "Sync" from the list.
Click on "Enable Sync"
In the "EndNote login" window, use the "Sign up" button to create a new EndNote account, following the instructions on the screen. If you already have an account, you can enter the access data (“EndNote Account Credentials”) in the same window below.

How to sync your EndNote Library to your EndNote Online account

You can recognize an EndNote Library that is not synchronized in the online account by the entry Sync Configuration in EndNote on the left in the Groups panel above All References. If you have created an EndNote Online account via EndNote Preferences as described previously and connected your desktop version to it, select the Sync command from the Library menu in EndNote 20 (in EndNote X9 you will find the Sync command under the Tools menu). sync their EndNote Library to the online account. This can take a while, especially when synchronizing for the first time. The Sync Status, which can be called up on the left in the Groups panel above All References for a synchronized EndNote Library, gives you information about the progress or the success of the synchronization. The amounts of data displayed in the local library and the online library should match.

This turns your EndNote Library into a shared library

Once you've checked the sync status and it matches, you can invite other EndNote Desktop users to share the library. To do this, select Share from the File menu in EndNote. In the Sharing window, enter the e-mail addresses of the invitees and click on the Invite button to send your invitation. In the upper part of the window you can see which invitees have not yet accepted the invitation (Pending) and who has already accepted it (Member). Here you can also set write and read access to the data (Read&Write) or only read access (Read Only). Starting with EndNote 20.1, you can invite up to 200 users for library sharing, previously it was up to 100.

How to access a shared library

If your EndNote desktop version is not yet connected to your EndNote Online account or if you do not yet have an EndNote Online account, please first follow the instructions above under “How to set up an EndNote Online account in the EndNote desktop version on” described steps.

You will receive an invitation to library sharing via email. You accept this by clicking on the link in the e-mail and then logging into your EndNote online account once, you have accepted the invitation. To open the shared library now, choose Open Shared Library from the File menu. In the Select a Shared Library window, select the relevant EndNote Library, which will be opened in the EndNote desktop version.

Learn more about library sharing

Only one library can be synchronized to an EndNote online account. You can also access this library via www.myendnoteweb.com or via the EndNote iPad app. You can be invited to share any number of EndNote libraries yourself, but you can only share one library with others.
You can share your EndNote Library with anyone who has an EndNote desktop version with an associated online account, regardless of where that version is used. There is no restriction to a common network or a common organization.
When you share a database, you can access it from your desktop installation, online, or from your iPad. You can only access databases that others share with you via your desktop installation
You can withdraw access to your EndNote database at any time by selecting "Share" in the EndNote menu File and then clicking on the gear icon "Remove".
Library sharing works in connection with the EndNote online account as a so-called premium account. The subscription for a premium account is included in the purchase of EndNotes (2-year premium account with EndNote 20 and X9, 3 years with EndNote 21, extension by upgrading to the current EndNote version).
As of Endnote X9, it is possible to share individual groups, which can then be accessed in Endnote Online (NOT in EndNote Desktop).
As of EndNote X9, you can give users either write or read-only access to your data.
An EndNote Library can be shared with up to 400 people since version 20.1 and with up to 1,000 people from version 21.
For the shared EndNote database there is no size limit in the cloud (2 years online account with unlimited storage for EndNote 20 and X9, 3 years with EndNote 21).
