Share a Library or Group

Sharing a Library or Group

You can share your library with up to 100 people in EndNote 21. Follow any changes made to the library through the activity tracker. It is advised that you create a compressed backup copy of your library before sharing it, just in case something goes wrong. 

Note: Anyone you share your library with can edit your references. If you do not want someone to edit your library but still want them to have a set of your citations, send them a compressed copy of your current library. To do this, see the instructions under "Backing up EndNote Library" or see how to share a group below.
