ISI ResearchSoft Today Ships EndNote Version 6 For Windows

EndNote 6 defines Bibliographies and now Manuscripts Made Easy

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Carlsbad, CA, USA - June 17, 2002 - Today, ISI ResearchSoft, a Thomson business (NYSE, TSX: TOC), announces a major upgrade to the world's most popular bibliographic management software-EndNote (patent pending). Long known for "Bibliographies Made Easy," EndNote 6 now defines "Manuscripts Made Easy." EndNote 6 smartly advances research and publishing by organizing images with text, and by providing built-in Microsoft Word templates for a variety of journals. These new features, along with a more intuitive interface and new connectivity, take EndNote 6 beyond bibliographies making it an essential manuscript management tool for writing, research and publishing. Initially available for Windows, a Macintosh OS X version is scheduled to ship in July.

"EndNote 6 is truly groundbreaking. For the first time users can cite figures as easily as they now cite references in their papers," said David Kochalko, President of ISI ResearchSoft. "And with the addition of new template wizards, EndNote 6 streamlines the manuscript submission process and provides benefits for authors and publishers."

Breakthrough Functionality
EndNote 6 is the first bibliographic software program to manage more than just text. Any type of generic image (e.g., BMP, TIFF, JPEG) or application file (e.g., Excel, PowerPoint, ChemDraw) can now be managed along with traditional text references. Users can access images and files directly from their EndNote libraries in Microsoft Word to create a figure list for their manuscripts.

"Until now, searching for images and other files to cite in my paper was tedious. EndNote has solved that problem. Now I find them quickly and can even click on the thumbnail to edit the image."
   - Alistair Campbell, Lincoln University, New Zealand

With its built-in Microsoft Word templates (e.g., APA, Nature, BioMed Central), EndNote 6 guides users through the exacting manuscript requirements of publishers, saving time and increasing accuracy. Completed manuscripts are now submission-ready with all the key elements including EndNote's instantly formatted in-text citations, bibliography, and figure list. "EndNote prepared manuscripts help us to deliver on speed and efficiency in the publishing process," said Matthew Cockerill, Technical Director of BioMed Central.

Cutting-Edge Connectivity
EndNote 6 builds on its leadership in connectivity by adding new and updated content files, bringing the combined total of output styles, import filters, connection files and manuscript templates to over 1400. These indispensable files enable researchers to collect data from online sources and to publish manuscripts. Many online databases, such as ISI Web of Science, Highwire Press, Ovid, OCLC, ProQuest, and more provide direct export of references into EndNote. Users can also take advantage of EndNote 6's unique traveling libraries by importing references directly from colleagues' papers to their personal EndNote libraries. Together, these new features transform EndNote 6 into an essential online research tool and manuscript manager.
