Xcopy H:\EndNote\Libraries\endnote-write H:\EndNote\Libraries\endnote-read /Y Since copying/overwriting/moving files will not occur correctly if the library files and folders are in use, it is advisable to run the commands during out of office hours. This can be done by using a simple script or batch command ran from the task scheduler. every night or every weekend, whatever is convenient). Copy the content of the 'endnote-write' library folder to the 'endnote-read' library folder in any desired frequency (e.g.Now your 'endnote-read' is updated and identical to your 'endnote-write'. Copy content of 'endnote-write' to 'endnote-read'.Now you have a backup of your 'endnote-read' library/libraries. Move content of 'endnote-read' to 'endnote-read-backup'.Now you will have a backup of your 'endnote-write' library/libraries. Copy content of 'endnote-write' to 'endnote-write-backup'.cmd or batch script for this task which you may schedule via the task scheduler or any other tool you are familiar with. Decide in what frequency you would like to refreshen your 'endnote-read' with the 'endnote-write' data.Create an ‘ endnote-write-backup’ folder.Only when they would like to modify or add new references, they open the 'endnote-write' library. The maintainers of the library always work for regular tasks (e.g., Cite While You Write, searching) with the 'endnote-read' library/libraries.

Create an ‘ endnote-read-backup’ folder.H:\EndNote\Libraries\endnote-read\UMC_central.Data H:\EndNote\Libraries\endnote-read\UMC_central.enl This is to avoid that a lot of changes are going to be made and cannot be saved. IMPORTANT: If you open the library in read-only mode from the 'endnote-read' folder, you will always get a warning message that changes will not be saved. Everyone will always work with this 'endnote-read' folder for almost all tasks, except when the library needs to be updated/edited (see step 5 and further). ![]() Also the 'write' team members (see 5 below) will have read-only access to this folder. Grant all EndNote users of this team read-only rights to this ‘endnote-read’ folder and sub folders.Data folder in the ‘endnote-read’ folder. Recommendation for shared EndNote libraries In read-mode about 99% of the functionality can be used (except for writing/entering references, removing and changing term manager lists etcetera). In read mode several users can read from the library at the same time. ![]() The other users can not open this specific library at that same moment. This means that, if we are talking about one specific library (database), this library can only be opened by one person at the same time in the write-mode. Please see EndNote Desktop, Online and iPad® - Sharing libraries for alternatives ( FAQ item 26).ĮndNote is a multi-read application (and not a multi-read-write application). The below procedure describes the 'Classic' network sharing. There are many ways to share an EndNote Library or 'groups'.
