Selecting a reference style
A reference style is a specific format for presenting your in-text citations and bibliography. Your Faculty or School may require that you use a particular referencing style - ask your lecturer if you are not sure.
EndNote X comes with over 2,500 reference styles for you to choose from (EndNote calls these ‘output styles’). Four default styles are automatically available within EndNote and Word. They are Author-Date, Annotated, Numbered and Show-All.
You can choose other styles (for example, APA 5th, MLA and Vancouver):
| 1. | |
| 2. |
while you are in Word
via the Format Bibliography command .
|
You can also preview how your references will be formatted whilst you are in EndNote.
It is also possible to modify a reference style, for example to create an annotated bibliography in the APA 5th style.
