EndNote

EndNote is currently not compatible with cloud storage and should therefore not be stored in OneDrive. For the time being, please keep your EndNote library on H:.

Sykehuspartner is working on a solution for storing the EndNote library when H: and K: are removed in October.

If you have already moved your EndNote library from H:, it is recommended to move it back to H:, preferably to the folder H:\EndNote, which is a folder associated with the EndNote programme.

Remember that the EndNote library consists of two elements; a file (e.g. MyLibrary.enl) and a folder (e.g. MyLibrary.Data), and that both must be in the same location and have the same name to function properly.

Once you are sure that the EndNote library (both the file and the folder) has been moved back to H:, you can delete the EndNote library from OneDrive.

If you are unsure where your EndNote library is stored, you can check it:

1. Open the EndNote programme

2. Click on File > Save a copy

3. The folder where the EndNote library is stored will open, and you can see where the EndNote library is located

4. Cancel to avoid saving a copy

You can also search for your EndNote library:

1. Go to File Explorer

2. Click in the search box at the top right and type: *.enl

3. Then the EndNote library will appear in the search results, and you will see where it is stored
   (remember that the EndNote library consists of both a file and a folder)

Dedicated Word Version for EndNote on Ahus PC

On Ahus PC, you must use a dedicated Word version alongside EndNote; "Word with EndNote" (this Word version has the EndNote toolbar). Search for it or find it under "My Administrative Programs". The same applies for PowerPoint; "PowerPoint with EndNote".

There is an issue where the EndNote toolbar does not always appear in "Word with EndNote" in the local workspace. In that case, you can switch to the regional workspace (Workspace RCP) and work there instead.

Here you will find several guides for using EndNote:
