Librario & EndNote

Native EndNote export. One click.

Librario exports whole collections and search results natively as an EndNote file — the most concrete touch-point of the three tools. EndNote then accompanies the individual submission; Librario holds the company's collection across every submission and year.

Two tools

Two tools, two jobs

EndNote and Librario are not competitors — they solve different jobs.

EndNote

What EndNote does

The reference manager for the manuscript workflow. EndNote is strong where a team works on a submission.

  • Cite directly in Word with “Cite While You Write”
  • Shared libraries for the project team of a systematic literature review
  • Manage the literature of one specific submission
Librario

What Librario does

The company library. Librario is strong where an organisation holds its collection across every submission.

  • The lasting company collection — across projects and submissions
  • Lending and physical copies, member and permission management
  • Collections that belong to the company — not to one project team

The bridge

From the company collection into your regulatory submission

In regulated industries — medical devices, for example — a systematic literature review begins in the company collection. You assemble the relevant standards, studies and subcontractor reports in a collection and export it in one click as an EndNote file. In the submission's shared EndNote library the team then cites directly in Word.

A submission — a Clinical Evaluation Report, for instance — is updated periodically. At the next update you reach back into the same collection in the company library: the sources are still there, even when the original project team is not.

What Librario adds as an institution

What a single library file cannot do

01 · COLLECTIONS

Knowledge that belongs to the team

A collection in Librario belongs to the company, not to a person. When someone leaves the team, the collection stays — and every source in it.

02 · AI RESEARCH

The MCP server

An AI assistant searches the company collection directly — secured, tenant-separated, with the same permissions as the web interface.

03 · IT STAYS

The collection outlives staff changes

Publications, metadata and attached PDFs stay in the company collection — no matter who created them or who has left the company.

Honestly

What Librario is not

Librario does not replace EndNote. Cite While You Write in Word, matching suitable journals, the entire manuscript workflow of one submission — that remains EndNote's job. Shared EndNote libraries handle team collaboration on a submission well; Librario does not set out to replace that.

How your literature gets into Librario

Librario does not ship a ready-made file import for .enw or .bib — but it offers two flexible paths. For everyday cataloguing, Librario detects metadata automatically from uploaded PDFs and via identifiers such as ISBN, DOI or arXiv ID. For a migration or a recurring sync, use the REST API: your IT builds exactly the importer your workflow needs — from EndNote, from an Excel sheet, or from your previous system.

Frequently asked questions

Do we have to drop EndNote if we adopt Librario?
No. EndNote stays the reference manager for your submissions' manuscript workflow. Librario is the company library beneath it — the two have different jobs and work together through the native EndNote export.
Does our existing literature from EndNote come into Librario?
Librario has no ready-made .enw or .bib file import. Existing literature comes in via automatic metadata detection from PDFs and via identifiers (ISBN, DOI, arXiv ID) — and via the REST API, which lets your IT script an importer for any source, e.g. from EndNote or an Excel sheet.
Does Librario meet our IT-security and data-protection requirements?
Librario runs in data centres in the EU, is GDPR-compliant and supports single sign-on via Microsoft 365 (Microsoft Entra ID). A data processing agreement (DPA) is in place; the Trust Center holds the DPA with the technical and organisational measures and the list of sub-processors.
Can we still evidence our sources years later?
Yes. A publication with its metadata and attached PDF stays in the company collection — no matter who created it or who has left. So the same source can be drawn on again at the periodic update of a submission.
Do we own our holdings — can we get out again?
Yes. You export your metadata at any time, in one click, as EndNote, BibTeX or CSV. Your holdings are yours — regardless of what happens with Librario.
