  EndNote is oriented towards people writing papers, rather than librarians
keeping databases.  It works with Word 3 & 4, WriteNow, WordPerfect and MacWrite
(not MacWrite II, yet...).  EndNote has a DA which lets you add and edit 
references and search the database without having to run MultiFinder.  The
program was written for the Mac and has a nice interface (according to our
customers).  The search function is pretty limited (Author/Year/Full Text) 
but it DOES have boolean capability between searches, and it's *really* fast.
(According to BCS Mac's newsletter).

and MacGuide, June '89.

  We have a nice catalog and a $5 demo disk: please send me mail if you 
would like either or both.
