    • Comparison to alternatives.

    • The Library's main page on this topic is <http://www.library.cornell.edu/resrch/citmanage>.

  • Version X7, (10/2015). All offerings seem to be multiplatform (Windows / Mac) and perpetual (of same version; not free version upgrades).

            • Full-price retail of $249.95 download ($299.95 shipped (physical)).

          • $30 more expensive than download academic price of $219.95, <http://endnote.com/buy>:

    • ChemIT attempted to bulk-license for a group summer 2015 and it was not cheaper than buying boxes at the Campus Store. Cheapest way used to be via Campus Store (physical, only).

      • March 2017: Overheard Aye group bought licenses for group members for about $800 total. Q: Cost-effective? Easier?

    • http://store.cornell.edu/p-185246-endnote-x7-faculty-and-staff-windows-macintosh.aspx

      • $219.95 (faculty/ staff), physical only.

        • Versus faculty/ academic staff retail $219.95., <http://endnote.com/buy>.

        • Versus full-price retail of $249.95 ($299.95 shipped (physical)).

      • $119.95 (student), physical only.

        • Versus $113.95 student retail (download only, though), <http://endnote.com/buy>.

    • Retail version upgrades at Campus Store is $109.95 for physical.

      • Retail download-only is $99.95. And physical, shipped is $109.95 (but then add shipping?).

      • Odd: "Academic" upgrade (Students/Faculty/Staff ) is $108.95, so costs more?! <http://endnote.com/buy> or <http://endnote.com/interstitial>.

      • Note: You must have a fully licensed previous version of EndNote installed on your computer to qualify for the upgrade product.

      • Note: You’ll need your serial number from X6 (or earlier) to activate.

  • Cost factors include: Bulk licensing, academic and student licensing (who is paying for it matters), and if buying new or upgrading a version.
