Reference styles for electronic resources

  • Several different styles
  • Corporate author/ anonymous
  • Data needs to be correctly input into the correct EndNote attributes (field) in order for the formatting styles to be able to work correctly.

  • Steps to watch out
    • Automatic (check database website and APA manual)
      • Filter (correct filter from Quosa, Pubmed or specific database)
      • Style (APA...etc. make sure it's the most updated and correct one)
    • Adding manually (check Endnote help files)
      • Reference type
      • Input field and format
        • Author Field:
          Enter author and editor names one name per line. If a name is too long to fit on one line, just continue typing—the text will wrap automatically.
          • Press after each author name to add another author.
          • You can enter author names as (e.g., Fred Smith) OR (e.g., Smith, Fred). Entering in the format is preferable because it will enable EndNote to “auto-complete” a name for you if you have entered that name before
          • Authors with titles such as “Jr.” or “III” should be entered in this format: (e.g., Smith, Fred, Jr.).
          • For corporate authors, enter a comma after the name of the organization (e.g., U.S. Department of Energy,). This will ensure that EndNote interprets the corporate author as a last name and alphabetizes it properly.
          • If you do not know the author’s name, leave the Author field blank (do not type Anonymous, unless Anonymous is printed on the title page of the work).
          • For multiple authors, enter all of the author names. If a bibliographic format requires the use of “et al.” or “and others,” EndNote will format this automatically. Only enter “et al.” if you
            do not know all of the author names.
        • Year Field: Use four digits.
        • Title Field:
          Enter titles on one line, even if they are very long. If a title is too long to fit on one line, just continue typing—the text will wrap automatically.
          • Do not add a period or other punctuation at the end of a title. EndNote will add formatting punctuation to your references automatically depending on the output style you’ve chosen.
        • Pages Field: You can enter page ranges as full (e.g., 1654-1658) or abbreviated (e.g., 1654-8).
          • EndNote will format these properly depending on the output style you’ve chosen.

    • Beware of setting up the page separation before a heading~ it will cause lag in the document map (set it up as the last step of the manuscript)
  • Shift+ Enter: maintaining in the same line
