EndNote Questions Edit Citation Box Citation to be edited Word Document Pages

Question: I am entering a document from an organization, say National Association of Social Workers, EndNote abbreviates this organization on the reference page to read Worker, N A o S , which is not correct APA format. Any suggestions?
Author is National Association of Social Workers [NASW]
EndNote needs to know this is one name, a last name of author
Put a comma after association’s name and EndNote is happy: National Association of Social Work ers , or NA SW ,
The reference cite: National Association of Social Workers. (1999).
First text citation: (National Association of Social Workers NASW, 1999)
Subsequent text citations: (NASW, 1999)

EndNote Questions Question? Citing electronic journal articles Look for a “ persistent URL ” or the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) The APA 6 th says “Do not include retrieval dates” if you have a DOI. If you are using a PDF version of the article, cite as you would a print journal. If the article lists its DOI, add this to the end of the citation. It is not necessary to include database information (i.e. Wilson or Proquest, etc.)

EndNote Questions Question? When citing a web page, the citation date, may not always be apparent . Look for an “Updated. . . .” at the bottom of the screen. Whatever information you have is all you can give, just don’t mention “not there” in the citation. The citation is to help the reader find the information you found. Sometimes you have to craft the citation yourself and that is OK.

EndNote Questions Remember? The Best Tip Detailed guide sheets for importing references from databases into EndNote are available online here: http://www.lib.ku.edu/technology/citing/import/ Print out the instruction sheets for the databases you use most often
