Demo of entering by hand

• Picking what type of citation is important if
  you want a url to appear in the citation you need
  to use electronic

7
Demo of using Google Scholar

• You can import citations directly from Google
  searches
• You can also import them from the library
  databases, but it is less straightforward. You
  have to use a filter. (If you anticipate doing
  thisgo to a library workshop.)

  phrase that you use often

More issues

• Personal Correspondence citation
• Fix
• 1. From EndNote, go to Edit - Output Styles -
  APA5th.ens2. On the left navigation pane, click
  "bibliography" and choose "Templates"3. Click
  the "Reference Type" dropdown menu and choose
  "personalcommunication"4. Type the following -
  Author.Title(that is,  Author, the pipe-to
  symbol, period, Title)5. SaveNext, go into

  (personal communication, July 30, 2007)Include
  the parentheses.  This is part of the APA style.

Still Another Issue

• Multiple authors show all for first citation
• Fix In EndNote, go to Edit Output Style and
  then choose the style youre using.  From there,
  click on the Citations section (on the left),
  then click on Author Lists. Choose List all
  author names. Save the style and reformat your
  paper by clicking on the Format Bibliography
  button in Word.

11
Final Word of Caution

• You can change citations in Word while youre
  typing, but if you dont change it in EndNote it
  will revert to the EndNote version the next time
  you open the document.

Tip

• You can look for other peoples EndNote libraries
  using Google (NOT Google Scholar).
• Put the term and file type in your search.
• Example
• "educational technology" filetypeenl
• Sometimes theyll open, sometimes not. It has
  been my experience that EndNote will often have
  to convert them from a previous version. Make
  sure you dont already have an EndNote library of
  your own already open.

More Tips

• Keep an electronic copy of everything you put in
  EndNote (except books unless theyre e-books).
  It will help you keep your articles organized.
• Beware of creating lots of EndNote librariesits
  hard to keep up with what you put where!
• You can combine EndNote libraries by importing
  one into another. Be sure to pick
  ReferencesgtShow all reference to see both the
  original and imported references.
