This will eventually lead to library corruption because of the way the cloud services synchronize files over the Internet. Never store an EndNote working library on any cloud service for sharing, or even just for your own use on multiple computers. HOW NOT TO SHARE AN ENDNOTE LIBRARY EndNote Libraries on “Cloud” Services This module covers some of the methods to avoid, and then talks about safer methods of sharing references or complete libraries.
This can cause difficulties when sharing libraries because only EndNote can properly control the sequence for updating and saving of data in the library, and outside synchronization or file management services can actually damage EndNote libraries. It is a set of files, many of them frequently updated as you work, and these files must be updated in a strict sequence by EndNote to avoid corruption of the library.
There is no selective synchronization.An EndNote library is not a single file.
Only one EndNote library on a device and one EndNote online account can be synchronized, so it is best to keep all your references in one library and use groups to categorize them.This will result in duplicates if the same references reside on the device and EndNote online. For the first synchronization, ALL references and custom groups will be copied in both directions.EndNote can synchronize an unlimited number of references and 5,000 groups between an EndNote online and desktop library, including up to 5 gigabytes of attachments.
