With EndNote Basic it is possible to create groups which you can share with others. 
You can create a new group or share an existing one with anyone that has an EndNote Basic account.

Sharing & inviting

If you want to share an existing group, click on: Organize > Manage My Groups

Check the box next to Share and click on Manage Sharing, then click on the link Start Sharing this Group.
In the pop-up screen, enter the email addresses of the people you want to share this group with.
Make sure you use the e-mail address they use for their EndNote Basic account!
Select  Read Only if you don't want them to make changes to the group.
Select "Read and Write" if you want them to be able to add citations to the group. Click Apply to save changes.
