Thank you for attending the workshop -- I think it went well considering the fact that EndNote Web was unavailable due to maintenance. The PowerPoint slides and the videos from the workshop have been loaded onto the libraries LibGuide.
Please take a minute to complete the workshop survey/evaluation.

The big one in this update is the ability to use CWYW with references in shared groups, in my opinion...
EndNote Web release includes the following improvements:
- Cite While You Write with references in shared groups
- Transfer up to 5,000 records to EndNote
- New Japanese interface
- Continued performance improvements
- Improved formatting for records with certain extended characters
- Improved administrative access for consortia site administrators.
A hands-on workshop covering the basics of EndNote Web is scheduled for Monday, February 22nd at 10 am in Room 134 of the Parks Library.
The workshop will cover creating an account, getting references into EndNote Web and creating bibliographies.
To register you can enroll under HRS Training within AccessPlus, look for Workshop -- EndNote Web.
The workshop will be repeated in March and April, but the dates for these have not been finalized.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thanks -- Stephen
One of the features with EndNote Web is the ability to share references with others -- specifically by providing the e-mail address of the people you wish to share references. To do this you go to the Manage My Groups under the Organize tab within EndNote Web. There is a button entitled Manage Sharing, click this and enter the e-mail addresses of the people you wish to share the group of references with...You also need to determine whether you wish to provide read only or read write access to your group of references. Then click apply and close the window. .
Even though you have entered the e-mail addresses, you need to click on the share box next to the "Manage Sharing" button. Unless you click on this button, you will not be sharing the library. You can tell by the little people icon 
So be sure that this icon is displayed on the group or you will not be sharing the group.
Thanks -- Stephen

The use of bibliographic management software and its internal search interfaces is now pervasive among researchers. This study compares the results between searches conducted in academic databases' search interfaces versus the EndNote search interface. The results show mixed search reliability, depending on the database and type of search performed.
