Step 2 : Create a New Library from the Health Sciences Library, UNC-Chapel HillHealth Sciences Library, UNC-Chapel Hill Creating an EndNote Library Creating an EndNote library is similar to creating a file or document. Think of a name for your library and where you’d like to store it. To create an EndNote library: 1. Choose New from the EndNote File menu. 2. Enter a name for your new library. 3. Choose a location for the library using the “Save in” list. 4. Click Save. EndNote library filenames are automatically given the extension.enl (for EndNote Library). The filename you enter appears in the top left hand corner of the window. At the bottom left corner of the window, the words "Showing 0 out of 0 references" indicate that your new EndNote library is empty. One Library or Several? There is no limit to the number of EndNote libraries you can create, but it is usually best to create only one library for each general topic or field. It may be a good idea to keep separate libraries for very different fields of investigation. For example, if you are an astronomer but your hobby is entomology, you might choose to keep references for these two research interests in separate libraries.
