EndNote 5 achieves a new level of integration with Microsoft Word, adding Cite While You Write technology to locate citations and instantly format bibliographies. A traveling reference library makes collaboration between colleagues as simple as sharing a Microsoft Word document. These new tools along with a spell checker, a direct link to the ISI Web of Science® and over 700 output styles, make EndNote 5 the easy bibliography writer.
 
"EndNote 5 is truly ground breaking. For the first time, users can watch the bibliography appear before their eyes as they write," said David Kochalko, President of ISI ResearchSoft. "In addition, the new traveling library frees researchers from having to exchange EndNote databases along with their manuscripts. Whether colleagues are down the hall or around the globe, EndNote 5 is the perfect collaborative writing tool."
 
 New time saving features
 
With Cite While You Write users focus on writing the paper, letting EndNote locate and insert citations as well as produce bibliographies. EndNote 5's new instant formatting delivers a finished bibliography as users cite references in the document, further streamlining the writing process. Sharing documents for collaborative writing has never been easier. With EndNote's new traveling library, documents contain complete reference data for all citations. Wherever the document goes, the references travel with it - ready for colleagues to add, delete and reformat citations.
 
ISI Web of Science users can now - at no additional charge - utilize a simple two way connection between the ISI Web of Science and EndNote 5. Researchers can now search the ISI Web of Science from EndNote 5 and drag and drop selected references to an EndNote library. EndNote 5 maintains a link to the original reference in the ISI Web of Science. Users can even access the full text of references and link to other scholarly databases through ISI LinksTM.
 
 Other new features for the research community
 
EndNote 5 automates spelling and typing corrections with a new Spell Checker that lets users check highlighted text or an entire reference for spelling errors. The new spell checker includes multi-language and discipline-specific dictionaries for greater accuracy. The addition of new output styles to format bibliographies brings the total to over 700. EndNote 5 is designed for Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, and NT. The list price of EndNote is USD329.95. A list of international distributors is available at www.endnote.com. Special upgrade prices are available to owners of previous versions.
 
 ISI ResearchSoft has several bibliographic softwares for the researcher.
