Creating one bibliography from several chapters with individual lists of references

If you are writing a dissertation you may need to include a list of references at the end of each chapter and then create a complete bibliography to put at the end of your work. To do this follow the steps below:

  • Write each chapter in a separate Word document and insert your references from EndNote as normal, to create a list of references at the end of the chapter
  • In EndNote go to Tools > Format Paper > Format Paper…
  • Select the first chapter of your dissertation and click Open
  • Choose Scan Next and open each of the remaining chapters in order
  • Select the output style that you want to use
  • Click Format

EndNote will make a formatted copy of each document and put a complete bibliography at the end of the last chapter.

Using EndNote with LaTeX

A number of people have been asking whether references from an EndNote library can be transferred into LaTeX. This is possible, providing the file is formatted in the BibTeX style. Details of how to use EndNote with LaTeX can be found in the FAQ section of the Library EndNote webpages (http://www.coventry.ac.uk/cu/d/293/a/3732).
