Using EndNote online for systematic reviews

EndNote desktop offers greater functionality for carrying out systematic reviews. If you only have access to EndNote online, there are some features that are useful for systematic reviews:

  • Managing duplicate references - you can deduplicate and delete the duplicate references. You can also keep a copy of them in another group.
  • Share groups of references - you can share groups of references with other researchers. The desktop version of EndNote enables you to share an EndNote library.

Find duplicates

 EndNote offers an easy way to find, compare and remove duplicate references.
