Editing a “one off” citation

Single citations once they are inserted into your Word document can be edited. This is useful if you wish to edit how a citation appears in the text without making changes to the output style you have choosen.
The most important thing this can be used for is adding pages numbers or removing a authors surname if you’ve already used it in the previous sentence.

In Word, highlight the citation you wish to edit.
Then either click on the edit citation icon on the EndNote toolbar or right click using the mouse and choose Edit Citation(s)… from the list of options.
From the Edit citation window, enter page numbers by adding them in the Suffix field.
(NOT in the pages field). Any numbers you enter in these fields must be typed as you wish them to appear in the citation. This includes spacing and punctuation
e.g. ,pp.150-155. ,150 or :150.

You may also wish to exclude the author or the year in one citation only. You can do this by placing a tick under each option in the formatted citation section.

Once you click on OK any changes you have made will be reflected in your citation in the text.

EndNote Web version

In December 2006 Thomson launched a web-based version of EndNote. This is a simplified web tool for managing and citing references and is not as comprehensive as Endnote X. The references are stored on the web so you can access them wherever you are, either on or off campus.

EndNote Web delivers tools to:
– Search online resources
– Save Web of Knowledge records directly to an online library
– Collect and organise references
– Format citations and footnotes or a bibliography

Although this version is now available we are NOT currently supporting the product as further developments will be released in 2007.

Please see University of Queensland website for further details of how to register for an EndNote Web Account and the advantages and disadvantages of the web version. [links to UQ with permission of John East] http://www.library.uq.edu.au/endnote/endnoteweb/notice.html
