What is EndNote?

Briefly, EndNote is a software program that helps you organize your research. Some of EndNote's many features allow you to: organize bibliographic citations in your own EndNote Library, transfer references from on-line databases into your EndNote Library, and instantly build bibliographies for your papers.

Where to get EndNote?

UH Manoa students, faculty and staff can purchase a copy of EndNote at a discounted rate through UH Information Technology Services (ITS). Visit the ITS Endnote Site License Program page to learn how to order your copy.

If you prefer a no-cost (i.e., free) option, you can sign up for an EndNote Online account. UHM faculty, staff, and students should use the UHM Library's EndNote Online link when creating their account in order to access additional features that are not available to basic accounts.
