Setting a Favorite Library

EndNote allows you to specify the libraries that you want to open automatically when EndNote starts up. We call these the "favorite" libraries.

You do not need to select a favorite library. By default, EndNote will open the last used library.

To assign or change the favorite library:

1. Open the library (or libraries) that you would like to set as your favorite. (You must have a library open in order to set it as your favorite library.)

2. From the EndNote Edit menu, select Preferences, and then select Libraries.

3. In the drop-down list at the top of the window, select "Open the specified libraries".

4. Click Add Open Libraries and all of the currently open libraries will be added to the list of favorite libraries that should open every time EndNote starts.

5. Click OK to save your changes and close the Preferences dialog. Click Save to save your changes, and then close the Preferences window by clicking in the close button in the top left corner.

To remove a library from the list of favorite libraries:

1. EndNote Edit menu, select Preferences and select Libraries from the list of options.

2. Select the library that you would like to remove from the list of favorite libraries and click Remove Library.

3. Click OK to save your changes and close the Preferences dialog. Click Save to save your changes, and then close the Preferences window by clicking in the close button in the top left corner.
