Set Find Full Text Preferences to UTHSC Library

EndNote X3-X9 offers the option to find full text of the references usually in PDF format downloaded to your EndNote Library. Before doing this, it is recommended that you set Find Full Text Preferences to connect to the UTHSC Library's resources in EndNote.  

  • Choose Find Full Text under EndNote Preferences (For PC users the EndNote Preferences is under Edit; For Mac users the EndNote Preferences is under EndNote tab)
  • Check all four boxes if they are not already checked
  • Enter UTHSC library's OpenURL and Authenticate With URL

OpenURL Path is: https://ezproxy.uthsc.edu/login?url=https://resolver.ebscohost.com/openurl?custid=s2861256

Authenticate with:   https://ezproxy.uthsc.edu/login?url=

Note that:

1) You do not need to enter Authenticate with URL if your computer is on campus

2) The EndNote Find Full Text feature will not find everything for you. Some journals and database services (e.g., JSTOR, EBSCO, and SWETS) will not work with it even if the UTHSC Library has access to the full text.

Here is what your EndNote Find Full Text Preferences should look like:
