File Downloads

You should also remove any previous versions of EndNote before installing EndNote X5. 

Download EndNote X5 for Windows and Macintosh

Styles, filters and connections
These should be saved into the folder where the EndNote styles, filters and connection files have been stored (usually in the Program Files folder on the C Drive).

If you experience any problems downloading the EndNote Software please email us for assistance: endnote@cdu.edu.au

For instruction on using  EndNote please consult the Tutorials and Guides LibGuide

After downloading the EndNote software you also need to add the CDU referencing styles (and filters and connections)

CDU Styles

From the link above click the ‘download CDU styles’ link. Choose ‘open’. Double click on the CDU styles 2011 folder and copy all the styles.

You must insert the style files in the correct folder where your copy of EndNote has been installed. For Windows, this will usually be C:\ProgramFiles\EndNoteX5\Styles. Look in the EndNote X5 folder in your Applications folder if you use a Macintosh. If you do not save the styles correctly you will not be able to access them from the Import Manager when using EndNote.

Once you have saved the CDU styles (same goes for filters and connections) you need to set preferences to point to the correct folder.

In EndNote, click on Edit on the top menu bar. From the dropdown menu select Preferences.

When the EndNote Preferences window opens, click on Folder Locations on the left-hand side.

This will show you the current settings for your personal folders. If you have installed EndNote on your computer for the first time, it will probably look something like this

You should then click on ‘Select folder’ for styles and ensure you have selected the correct location of your CDU styles ie: C:\ProgramFiles\EndNoteX5\Styles. This process will then allow you to 'select another style' in your EndNote library and choose the preferred style for your school ie: CDU-Harvard.

EndNote is a Bibliographic Management tool which allows you to add references manually or automatically from Library databases to your EndNote Library.

References added to the EndNote software are stored in an EndNote Library and can be inserted in a Word document as you write your essay or research. EndNote then creates a Reference list at the end of your document.

EndNote allows you to organise your research and collect your citations into a searchable library.
