About EndNote 21

EndNote 21 is the latest release of EndNote and is available for all staff and students of the University of Adelaide.

Apart from some new features and enhancements, the interface and functionality of EndNote 21 is familiar to users of EndNote 20, so you may see some pages and videos still referring to EndNote 20 as these instructions are still relevant to the latest version.

The chart below provides a comparison of the three most recent versions of EndNote (X9, EN 20 and EN 21).
