Download the free EndNote Click plugin – this installs the extension locally in your browser (available for Chrome, Firefox and Opera; see special instructions for Opera).
You will be asked to register and select ‘University of Liverpool’ as your institution.

Before installing EndNote Click, read and make sure you are happy with their data principles on how they collect and store data, and their terms and privacy policy.
EndNote Click will automatically activate when you search from any one the 20,000 scholarly websites currently supported.
When viewing a journal article, EndNote Click will check for the best available PDF of the full text – prioritizing the publisher’s platform first, but also checking sources such as open access and institutional repositories, and other resources paid for by the library.
When EndNote Click finds the full text of a journal article you're viewing, this icon will appear in the bottom left corner of the screen:
When you hover over this, you’ll see where EndNote Click has found full text options. Click this to view the full text EndNote Click has found.
When EndNote Click isn't able to immediately retrieve the full text PDF, it will show this icon instead:
Click this to check for other access options, including full text from other sources, or, if no full text is available, it will provide a link to the 'Get it for me' service to request it.
You need to associate yourself with the University of Liverpool so that Endnote Click is able to check if you can access the journal article because of a subscription paid for by the library.
EndNote Click will prompt you to login using your MWS username / password while it is checking for a PDF, if you’re off campus. You will only need to login once.
Also, once you've registered, PDFs you access via EndNote Click are stored in the cloud in your personal "Locker" and are automatically synced between devices. Access your locker from the EndNote Click icon in the bookmarks bar.
