Week Seven Summary

The lecture for week seven was about using EndNote. EndNote is a program that can be used to help reference sources electronically and is also a bibliography maker. A student would use EndNote in essays as a tool to references sources as they go.

End Note can be used as a stand alone program to manage references or it can be used in cooperation with Microsoft Word.

The class was informed on how to open, use and download EndNote.

Reading Summary One: Endnote.


The first reading summarises endnote and its facilities. The text shows how to extract sources from ProQuest to make referencing easier. The document also shows the reader how to insert references into Microsoft Word. I found this information very similar to what i had previously read except more indepth. This meant that the reading was not very helpful to me. I did learn how to import and export sources directly.


Reading Summary Two: Some additional Endnote help.

The second reading is additional help for when using endnote. This site helps with the same functions that the first reading helped with as well as how to format endnote to your personal style. this was not very helpful because I was reading what i already had read, however if I were to have trouble with endnote I would prefer to use this website rather then the other site because it is easier to follow.
