  7. 5. Adding Notes & Attachments to references • The Notes, Research Notes, and Abstract fields can each hold up to 64,000 characters, which is equivalent to about 16 pages of text. • Use the Notes field to store personal reminders, such as the location of a quotation in a book or the quotation itself. • Use the Abstract field for a brief description of the contents of the work. • Double Click on a reference to edit the details. Go to the fields you require and type. • Right Click and select File Attachments to a add a file.

  8. 6. Creating Groups & Adding References to Groups • Groups make it easy to break a large library into subsets for later viewing. A group simply points to a subset of references that already exist in the library. • Click on Create Group from the Group menu and give it a relevant name. • Drag & Drop references into groups to keep references organised.

  9. 7. Adding Citations to Word • Open the EndNote library or libraries that contain the references you wish to cite. • Start Microsoft Word and open the paper you are writing. • When you are ready to cite a source, position the cursor in the text where you would like to put the citation. • Go to the Endnote Ribbon and use the Insert Citations options. • Select the reference style you want by using the Style drop down in the Bibliography section.
