What is EndNote X3?
EndNote X3 is a desktop program designed to help researchers through the process of writing a research paper, thesis or dissertation. This tool will help you organize and manage bibliographic citations and articles you find using the Pearson Library databases. In addition, it will automate the process of creating with-in text citations and references in APA, MLA, Chicago or other common style formats.
