EndNote X3 Now Available!

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:35:00 -0600

EndNote version X3 is now available to all current faculty, staff, and students with a valid NetID. If you are off-campus, you will need to connect to NU using VPN (signing in to the Galter Library website is not sufficient). You can download EndNote from the NUIT software site. Both Windows and Mac versions are available.

Windows users: When downloading be sure to "Save File". A zipped folder will be downloaded to your computer. DO NOT double click on the zipped folder. Instead, right click and extract the contents of the folder to a convenient file folder on your computer.

The extracted folder contains several items including the ENX3 installer, a ReadMe file, and the NU toolkit folder. After installing the software you should run the update to X3. From within EndNote, choose "EndNote Program Updates" from the "Help" menu and follow the on-screen prompts. After running the update, open the ReadMe file for instructions on installing the files in the NU ToolKit.

What's New in EndNote X3?

EndNote X3 has a faster start up than previous versions of EndNote. Some nice new features have been added such as the ability to create multiple bibliographies within the same document; improved groups functionality; compatibility with OpenOffice; and the addition of more journal and manuscript styles. For all the latest guides, FAQs and help with EndNote, see the EndNote Support page.

Introducing the New PubMed

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 15:38:00 -0600

A few weeks ago we gave you a sneak peek at the new PubMed redesign. The switch from the old to the new search interface is now complete and when you access PubMed from the Galter Library website, you will be automatically taken to the new search page in PubMed. The design changes are largely cosmetic: you can do all the same things you did before, but some menus have changed.

There are plenty of help materials available to ease you through the transition. The following brief video tutorials from the PubMed website cover the basics (turn up your speaker volume):

PubMed Simple Subject Search (1 min.)
Search PubMed for an Author (3 min.)
Searching PubMed by Author and Subject (1 min.)
Search for a Journal (3 min.)

The Galter Library has also updated its online guide to PubMed.

Join us for our next hands-on PubMed class in the library on November 12 at 10am. Unable to make the class or need help immediately? Ask a Librarian or contact the Reference Desk at 312-503-8109 for help with your PubMed queries.

PubMed Redesign Now Available for Preview

Fri, 02 Oct 2009 10:21:00 -0600

This article was featured in Library Notes #57 (October 2009).

The PubMed search interface is about to undergo its largest design change in years and a preview is now available. Search functionality appears to be the same while most of the changes relate to the results display. Galter librarians are still in the process of exploring the new interface and will be updating our online guides very soon. The Galter Library's PubMed class on October 15 will feature the new design.

You can access a preview of the redesign from the PubMed homepage or at http://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?holding=norwelib&otool=norwelib. The preview and original version will run side by side for approximately two weeks after which time the preview will be the only option available. For a detailed list of the various changes, see the September 30 issue of NLM Technical Bulletin.

Questions or comments about the new design? Contact the Reference Desk at 312-503-8109 or use our Ask a Librarian web form.
