Citing and refering with EndNote and Word

Mari Lundevall, Informatics library

Reference tools

• EndNote (the University pays for licences to all students and employees)

• Zotero, Mendeley (free tools)• All can help you with:

– Building a library– Making in-text citations– Making reference lists and bibliographies

Taking a few hours to learn EndNote was a very good choice! Two hours spent on this before writing my thesis saved me hours, or even days, of work towards the end.

duplicates• Look at your bibliography to see if you need

to make template changes in EndNote (if you write your articles in Norwegian, for instance)
