Objectives At the end of the session, • Find your way around EndNote & learn where to find answers to questions about the software • Create EndNote libraries & save references in them • Search for & add references by connecting to remote databases through the Internet • Import references from downloaded files into EndNote • Use EndNote with Microsoft Word to create & format citations
Aboutplagiarism • Academic integrity • Essential to acknowledge the sources you use • NUS Plagiarism Prevention service http://www.cit.nus.edu.sg/plagiarism/
Outline • Getting started: Installing EndNote • Creating & building EndNote libraries • Creating custom groups • Backing up your EndNote files • Adding references to a library • Copying references between libraries, searching & sorting a library, creating an independent bibliography/reading list • Cite While You Write • About EndNote Web • Useful resources
Getting Started: Installing EndNote • LION (Library Instruction ONline) • Step-by-step guide • Start All Programs Software Catalogue Software Catalogue Client 1.2 Specialised Applications EndNote • Available for both Windows and Macintosh computers

Demo: Basic features of EndNote • Opening a reference library • EndNote window, Library window, Reference window • Library window: Groups, reference (each line = 1 reference), column headings (file attachment, author, year, title, etc), reference preview • EndNote toolbars, output styles, Search box • Selecting an output style using the menu • Using the style manager change menu listing & modify an output style Edit > Output styles > Open style manager • Sorting reference list • Finding & previewing references • Viewing a references & attached files & Website (URL) • Changing EndNote preferences • Setting default libraries • Changing Fields displayed in reference list • Closing your library & exiting EndNote
Output styles Column headings/Fields Search Endnote window Library window Click to hide/display preview Reference preview
new_library.enl file EndNote library file extension • new_library.Data folder Contains figures, groups and other significant files new_library.enl
Creating custom groups • Max 500 custom & smart groups per library • Include • Custom groupsAre manually created by adding individual references to the group • Smart groups Built with search strategies, are dynamically updated as references are added and edited in the library. • EndNote WebAllow you to easily initiate a transfer of references between an EndNote Web folder & EndNote desktop library.
Backing up your EndNote files • File > Save a copy • *.enlEndNote library file extension • *.Data folder Figures, images, groups, file attachments, etc • Saving a compressed copy of a library • *.enlx extension
Tips • No limit to the number of references in each library but not recommended to exceed 100,000 references • Important to always move, copy, rename & delete both the main *.enlfile& the associated *.Data folder for each EndNote library. • Always make a backup copy • Save as a compressed library (*.enlx) for larger files
Tips • One library or several?One library for each general topic or field. • Custom groups provide a useful way of organising your references into different categories or groups.

Adding references manually • References > New Reference • Select Reference TypeDetermines which fields are available for data entry • Do not need to fill in all fields • Close the reference by clicking on the “X” button in the top right-hand corner. Closing also saves the reference. • Use for working papers/ manuscripts which are not found in databases
Tips • Author • Last name(surname),First namee.g. Feng, Yuan Ping e.g. Watt, Frank e.g. de Young, John Robert e.g. Smith, Alfred, Jr. • One author per line with a line break between authors • Put a comma at the end of corporateauthorse.g. National University of Singapore,e.g. University of California,, Berkeley Video clip URL: http://www.endnote.com/training/WMVs/ENX2/06-Manual_Data_Entry.wmv
Tips • Pages e.g. 125-128 or 125-28 or 125-8 • Date • Text field, leave out the year • Use the date format preferred in your discipline • Keywords • Use semicolons (;), backslashes (\) or line breaks between keywords • Do not use commas or forward slashes (/)
Tips • URL fieldhttp://libproxy1.nus.edu.sg/login?url=XXXX • File attachments • Including PDF, Word, Excel, etc. • Automatically save a copy of original file in the library’s data folder ORcreate a “relative link” • 45 total links or attachments per EndNote record
Tips • Figure • Can contain a graphic or an object (file attachment) • Attached figures can be cited & displayed in Microsoft Word • A single figure file per reference • Graphic file types: *.bmp, *.gif, *.jpg, *.png, *.tif • Object files: Audio files (WAV, MP3), Microsoft Access files, Excel files, Power Point files, etc • CaptionAlways enter a caption for the figure

Demo: Online Search of remote databases • Connect to the remote online database Natl U of Singapore • Search the database carbon nanotubes 33 records A connection file is a software that allows you to search a database over the Internet, without leaving EndNote
Tips • Not preferred due to limited flexibility & advanced searching features. • Move “unwanted” references to Trash. Empty the trash by right-click & select Empty Trash to remove them permanently from the library.
