It is essential that your Endnote Library is stored on your local hard drive. Do not store it on cloud storage services like OneDrive, Dropbox, or Google Drive. These services may corrupt your Endnote Library.
On University laptops and computers store your EndNote Libraries and Data folders at This PC > Windows (C:) > Username (e.g. MSM4)
Create back-ups frequently using the Compressed Library option (File > Compressed Library).
Store your back-up library in OneDrive and restore it to your hard drive if you need to at any time.
If you work between different devices you must synchronise your data via EndNote Online. If regularly synchronised, EndNote Online can provide an additonal backup of your Library.
Check the guides on this EndNote help page. Check the tabs at the top for more information.

EndNote helps you to collect, organise and share your references. There are 3 parts:
EndNote Desktop – powerful functionality for research and systematic review.
EndNote Online – a bit more basic but still great functionality when you are away from your desktop version.
Cite While You Write (CWYW) – an add-on tool for Microsoft Word for in-text citation and bibliography.
Install EndNote from AppsAnywhere. You can download to your own device while you are staff or a student at the University.
