To make a bibliography of particular references:
  • Run EndNote and load your library.

  • Select the references for the bibliography by clicking on the first, then holding down the CTRL key and click on the rest in turn.
  • Either drag the references into a Word document, or click on File | Export... and choose where to save the bibliography and in what format (Text, RTF, HTML or XML) and style.
  • Look through the document to make sure the formatting is correct. For example, producing a bibliography for APA 5th using this method will not give you a hanging indent, which all APA 5th bibliographies should have.

You will often need to edit these documents manually to get them exactly as you want them.

 

EndNote also allows you to quickly, and easily, create a subject bibliography or reading list using references and subject terms from your EndNote library. To do this:

  • Run EndNote.
  • Open the EndNote library you want to make a subject bibliography from.
  • Select the references to be included in your subject bibliography. (If you are unsure which ones to include, start by select them all with Edit | Select All.)
  • Go to Tools | Subject Bibliography.

Select Subject Bibliography

A list of EndNote field names is displayed:
