Description
"Referencing has always been my waterloo in writing. I purchased my Endnote way back in 2014 but have never used it even once. The reason is that, I am afraid to use it–because I don't understand its mechanics. The commands are so enormous that I always end up in a maze. This course has taught me the simplest and most essential path of using the software and it literally removed my fears. Now I have the confidence to try it again. This is a total refresher! Very useful and I highly recommend this lesson!!!" - Janet E."Some great tips on managing EndNote. Very helpful and definitely worth a look if you are new to referencing." - Leandri K."Excellent delivery. I have another tool in the bag for academic writing.
