What does Endnote offer to you? 
Endnote http://www.endnote.com (now offered by Clarivate Analytics which also offer Journal Citation Reports), is a reference management software for Windows and Mac. It offers many options to manage literature/ references (as an individual or a group), work with PDFs and write a paper including footnotes and a bibliography more easily - learn more about Endnote in this video and in the brochure "Endnote X9 Factsheet".
HZI purchased a campus licence* for Endnote. You can install Endnote from the Softwarecenter on your workstation (see how-to , the current version Endnote X9 will be available there soon) .
* Due to the campus licence for Endnote it is not possible to install Endnote also on private devices. Please use a trial version from endnote for an installation on a private device: http://endnote.com/downloads/30-day-trial (the trial version can be used longer than the mentioned 30 days)
