Referencing for FEE MSc students Michael Whitton & Isobel Stark & University Library
Why Reference? You’ll lose marks if you don’t! Allows others to trace your sources Adds weight to your argument Demonstrates that you have read widely Credits the author Avoid plagiarism 2
Plagiarism Plagiarism is the reproduction or paraphrasing, without acknowledgement, from public or private (i.e.: unpublished) material (including material downloaded from the Internet) attributable to, or which is the intellectual property of, another including the work of students. 3
When should you reference? Quote from a book? Paraphrase from a book? Summarise an article? Cut and paste free Internet material? 4
How to Reference It’s NOT difficult! – Citation in the text – see examples – Quoting – Paraphrasing – Summarising List of references – see guide – IMPORTANT: record details as you go 5

Bibliographic software Build a personal reference library Search databases and export references Organise your PDFs Insert citations and build bibliography 29
Using Endnote Help & training material: bibliographic/endnote/ 30
Create or open a library Go to: Start All Programs Bibliographic Software EndNote X6 31
It is best to save all libraries in a folder called 'EndNote' or 'EndNote X6' 32
An EndNote library always has two parts - the library 'shape' and the data collected Give the new library a name, and click 'Save' 33
It is usually best to keep all references in one main library Smaller libraries for particular topics can be created using the 'Groups' option 34
Add a new reference 35

Export database information to EndNote Export references from databases to a new or existing library or group Connection files and import filters are used Many databases export directly to EndNote - some e.g. CSA Illumina, use a slightly different process A number of databases export URL links as part of the record The export process is common to all databases on a given platform There is a separate process for searching any library catalogue 46
Export from Web of Knowledge 47
This is the Web of Knowledge home page Enter a search term - in this case 'diabetes' and click 'Search' 48
On the Results pages, click required items, then click 'EndNote' 49

Marked records are identified Click at any time to view Marked List 51
Select fields to be included in output, then click 'EndNote' It is helpful to include the abstract in exported records 52

Scroll down the page 54
Click the URL link to view the source record 55
The Web of Knowledge database record is displayed 56
Find full text of articles 57
To search the whole library for free full text, select a single item, then go to 'Edit Select All' 58
Select 'Find Full Text Find Full Text …' 59
EndNote searches Web of Knowledge for full text and attaches items found to the individual records 60

Identify the point in the text to insert a citation Click the EndNote icon to go to the EndNote Library 65
Click to highlight the required reference Insert the reference from this toolbar, then return to Word … 66
… or return to Word and click to insert the citation The citation is displayed in the text, with the full reference at the end 67
A document citation folder is created 68
Citations and references are displayed according to choices made within the edited reference style 69
Edit citations 70
Click in the citation to highlight and then go to 'Edit and Manage Citations' 71
Highlight the specific citation Change selection to remove author or year from the citation or show only in the bibliography Click OK to complete the action 72
To remove a reference from the document, go to 'Edit Reference' and 'Remove Citation' 73
