EndNote Download site updated

University IT has updated the EndNote download site, on July 22, 2024. There are instructions for installing EndNote21 on your personal computer or on campus InTune computers. If you have an older campus computer, you may need to create a ticket with your local supporter. EndNote is now available for all faculty, staff and students thanks to an annual subscription courtesy of University IT.

The Libraries have created a Resource Guide to support EndNote, as well as RefWorks, an alternate citation manager.

New Citation Management LibGuide

The Libraries have created a new LibGuide covering citation manager software, such as EndNote and RefWorks. This new LibGuide also contains video tutorials and text guides on how to use EndNote and RefWorks. It also contains information on the process of installing EndNote to your PC, and signing up for a RefWorks account. The LibGuide can be found here: Citation Managers.

Notice regarding alumni access to Library resources

We have received reports that alumni are being informed they can access Library resources online once they receive an alumni email account. This is incorrect. Alumni do not have access to the Library’s online resources and subscriptions.

Alumni who have been issued an alumni email cannot access Library resources due to licensing restrictions.

If you need any more information or have any questions, please contact us.

WiFi networks in the Library

With the start of the new semester and the welcoming of new and returning students, we’d like to share a tip that will hopefully make getting your daily work done much easier. When on campus, please make sure to choose LSUHSC-Secure as the WiFi network.

If you somehow connect to Eduroam, LSUHSC-Visitor, or any of the other available networks, you will not be able to access Library resources easily nor print to the PayPaw system. You can also ensure you do not connect to any of these networks by unchecking “Connect automatically” if it is selected.

For those using Macs, you can set LSUHSC-Secure as your preferred network.

If you need assistance, please contact us.
