Manual addition of references
Individual reference details can be entered manually.
- In your Endnote Online account, go to Collect
- Select New Reference for a template to add the item details
- Try adding this Journal Article reference (note, each author’s name must be added on a new line):
- Spring, H and Adams, R. (2013) 'Learning and Teaching in Action'. Health Information and Libraries Journal 30 (4), pp.337-342.
Bookmarklet tool
The EndNote Bookmarklet Tool (Capture Reference) scans the bibliographic information presented on a webpage and creates a reference which you can save in either EndNote online or EndNote desktop.
This is a particularly useful tool for those journal sites or webpages which do not offer a direct export option on screen.
However, the reference produced may be very basic and require more details to be entered manually.
Instructions:
- In your Endnote Online account, go to Downloads
- Locate Capture Reference
- Simply drag the Capture Reference bookmarklet to your toolbar and then use it subsequently when on a web page or other source you wish to save
- On the resulting login screen, enter your Web of Science / Endnote Online login details
-
A template pop-up will show on-screen: fill in the required details before saving the record to your Endnote Online account
Note:
- Multiple authors will be listed on one line - after you've imported your captured reference(s) you'll need to edit the author field and ensure each name is on a separate line and displays correctly (either first name last name OR last name, first name)
- Also, ensure the Reference Type has been picked up correctly - you can change this before you import or afterwards
