FOR IMMEDIATE
RELEASE
Carlsbad CA, USA - June 9, 2006—Today, Thomson ResearchSoft (www.researchsoft.com),
a business of The Thomson Corporation, ships a major upgrade to EndNote®—the
bibliographic management software used by millions of researchers,
librarians and students. The industry standard for creating easy
bibliographies and managing references, EndNote X now introduces
expanded PDF management, increased flexibility in viewing, searching
and handling reference information, and more.
“Maintaining
links between references and PDF files is essential for scholarship
and collaboration,” said David L. Kochalko, president,
Thomson ResearchSoft. “With EndNote X users can drag and drop a PDF
directly onto a reference and never break the links, making EndNote
the central repository of reference information and accompanying
full text articles.”
Expanded PDF Management
EndNote X introduces a new way to manage PDFs. Simply drag and
drop a PDF file onto an EndNote record. EndNote stores the file
with the EndNote references, and creates a link automatically.
Existing PDF links in an EndNote library can be converted to the
new PDF management system in one step. And the new compressed
library option creates a single-file backup for easy transport of
an EndNote library between computers. These time-saving features
make it easy to share an EndNote library, including the linked
PDFs, with colleagues.
Increased Flexibility in Handling Reference
Information
EndNote X provides users with more flexibility in how they work with
their references. Users can view up to eight fields in the reference
list display, and click-sort column heads to locate records quickly.
PDF links are identified easily with a new PDF icon. The reference
edit window now includes a new option to “show and hide empty
fields” to reduce scrolling through reference detail. And in
response to user requests, new reference types are available—Grant,
Ancient Text, Dictionary and Encyclopedia.
New Ways to Search and Connect
Now users can search EndNote libraries using the new “begins with”
or “ends with” options for fields and words. And EndNote X offers
many more ways to connect EndNote with bibliographic databases and
publishing styles—800+ connections to online sources, 540+ import
filters and over 2,300 journal styles!
Pricing and Availability
EndNote X is designed for Windows 2000 and XP. The list price of
EndNote X is $299.95 USD. Students in North America can purchase
EndNote X for $109.95 USD with a valid student I.D. For a list of
international distributors, go to
www.endnote.com. Special upgrade prices are available to owners
of previous versions. EndNote X is now available from Thomson
ResearchSoft, college and university bookstores, and authorized
resellers worldwide. EndNote X for Mac OS X will ship summer 2006.
