EndNote Training, Tutorials & Fixes

References imported into EndNote Desktop from PubMed/ Medline may show abbreviations instead of full names as required by the APA 6th edition style. See the official EndNote video below to apply a fix to EndNote Desktop. The video still refers to EndNote X7, but the instructions will work with the current version. NOTE: You must have a library open in EndNote in order to follow these instructions.

Unfortunately, there is currently no fix available for this issue in EndNoteWeb.

For more information on setting up and using EndNote go to https://clarivate.libguides.com/endnote_training/home.

In your document, do the following:

  • Word 2007/2010/2013/2016 (Windows): Go to the EndNote or Endnote Web tab. Be sure that you have selected the output style to edit, e.g., APA 6th. At the lower right-hand corner of the "Bibliography" portion of the ribbon, there is a square box. Click on this box.

    Word 2016 (Mac): Go to the EndNote or EndNote Web tab. Be sure that you have selected the output style to edit, e.g., APA 6th. Click Bibliography > Configure Bibliography.

    Word 2003/2004/2008/2011: Go to the "Tools" Menu and choose "EndNote (or EndNote Web) > Configure Bibliography, Bibliography Settings or Format Bibliography" command. Be sure that you have selected the output style to edit, e.g., APA 6th.
     
  • Next, click on the Layout tab. Here, you have options to change the font and line spacing options for the bibliography.

You can configure EndNote to retrieve full text through the UC's OpenURL link while on campus or while connected to the Software VPN.

To use UC-eLinks from within EndNote, make the following modification:

  • Open EndNote and in the top menu go to Edit > Preferences in Windows, and the EndNote menu > Preferences on the MAC.
  • Select the Find Full Text option.
  • Check the four boxes at the top, and paste this link into the OpenURL Path:
    • https://uci.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/openurl/01CDL_IRV_INST/01CDL_IRV_INST:UCI?
  • Click OK

You can now right click on references (or multiple selected reference) and select the Find Full Text option.

This has been tested on EndNote 9.x and 20.
