Can I use EndNote at home?
EndNote can be downloaded from the Library website (see the Installation tab). It can be installed on both institutional and personal computers, provided the user signs a license agreement and consents to uninstall the program at the request of a Polytechnique staff member or upon leaving the school.
Can I open a library created with a previous version of EndNote with the current version of EndNote?
Previous versions are compatible with the current one. However, once a library created with a previous version of EndNote has been opened with a newer version of EndNote, it should only be used with this newer version.
How do I use EndNote in a research group?
You can share your EndNote 2025 library with up to 1000 people. All of them can add references and use it at the same time.
Am I allowed to share an EndNote library with attached PDFs with colleagues or members of my research group?
ATTENTION! As a general rule, PDFs from databases to which the Library subscribes may be saved for personal use only. It is not permitted to save PDFs on a server in order to give members of a research group access to these files.
Also, it is not allowed to share PDFs from databases to which the Library subscribes with people not from Polytechnique Montréal.
To ensure compliance, it is recommended that you DO NOT SAVE PDFs in a shared EndNote library.
Can I use EndNote with BibTeX/LaTeX?
Yes! Consult the BibTeX / LaTeX Guide published by the Library.
I had problems installing EndNote. What should I do?
