Introduction to EndNoteA software that:

• stores and organises references from many sources

• inserts these references into a Word document, and

• automatically formats your references according to a predefined citation style

5

Workflow

6

1. Create an EndNote Library

2. Add references to the EndNote Library

3. Manage references: using groups & finding duplicates

4. Insert references in MS Word (Cite While You Write)

5. Change citation style and edit preferences

Citations & BibliographyTwo places to cite the references you have used:• within a sentence (in-text citation)

• at the end of the document (bibliography/references)

7

Bibliography/ReferenceHerring, S. C., & Paolillo, J. C. (2006). Gender and genre variation in weblogs. Journal of Sociolinguistics, 10(4), 439-459.

In-text CitationHerring and Paolillo (2006) found that the genre of a web entry, rather than the gender of the writer, affects the style of writing.

The EndNote LibraryContains all your references. No limit to number of

references, but <100,000 is recommended
