Some styles call for the journal titles to be abbreviated. EndNote’s Journals term list provides a way for you store up to four variations of journal names.
EndNote provides several journal abbreviation lists for different disciplines which you may import into your Journals term list.
Importing Journal Lists:
• From the Tools menu, select Open Term Lists, then Journal Term List
• Delete all existing terms from the list and then click Delete Term.
• Click on the Lists tab and highlight Journals list.
• Click Import List.
• In the File box, go to the EndNote X9/Terms folder, select the list you want to use, and click Open
You might need to edit your Output Style to tell it to use abbreviations or the full journal name in the formatted bibliography, or to specify whether to use periods in the abbreviation.
If EndNote does not have specific journals in the imported Journals Terms list, you can also edit the list to enter the journal name and abbreviations yourself.
Once you have a journal term list, you can edit it, adding a journal title and abbreviations.
Here are some places to find journal abbreviations:
• CASSI Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index
• Medical
• • NLM Catalog: Journals referenced in the NCBI Databases
If the journal title isn't found in NLM Catalog, try searching for individual words to see how they are abbreviated.
• • Citing Medicine: The NLM Style Guide for Authors, Editors, and Publishers. 2d edition
(appendices A & B)
• • Abbreviations-Names of Journals in AMA manual of style, 10th edition
• IEEE Reference Guide (pdf) Version 08.19.2020
abbreviations start on page 20
• ASCE: Science and Engineering Journal Abbreviations (Woodward Library, University of British Columbia)
• • secondarily, use the List of Title Word Abbreviations (LTWA) ISSN International Centre
• Web of Science Journal Title Abbreviations
• Journal Abbreviation Sources (All That JAS)
To change the format of your bibliography
either (in Word)
1. Go to your EndNote Toolbar in Word
2. Select Bibliography, then select Configure Bibliography
or (in EndNote)
1. In EndNote, open Tools on the top menu
2. Select Cite While You Write, then Format Bibliography

3. In the Format Bibliography tab, on the With output style: line, select the citation style you want to modify
4. Select the Layout tab

In the drop-down menu by Line-spacing: select Double
b. To single-space within each citation but add a line or lines in between citations:
In the drop-down menu by Space after: select None, Single, 1.5, or Double
If this is only occasional, just correct the title in the EndNote reference entry (right-click on the item, select Edit Reference)
Otherwise, you can change the article title capitalization rule that EndNote is following and specify either:
Headline Capitalization (capitalize initial letter of each word in the title)
or
Sentence style capitalization (capitalize only the initial letter of the first title word)
For APA 6th, you can select the output style APA 6th sentence capitalization
(Use the drop-down arrow in EndNote's Output Style box, click Select Another Style, then APA 6th sentence style)
For other Output Styles:
On the top EndNote menubar select Edit → Output Styles
Then, either click on #2 on the list, Edit <"your selected output style">
Or, if your style isn't selected, choose #3 on the list, Open Style Manager, and select your output style from the new list.
Once you are in the new popup window for your output style,
Under Bibliography select Title Capitalization, and select how you want article titles capitalized.
Save your modified output style (Edit → Save As... . )
You might want to give it a different name so you know it is a modified style.
If you renamed the modified style, once back in your EndNote main window, be sure to select your new output style.
(Use the drop-down arrow in EndNote's Output Style box, click Select Another Style, then your new style name.)
You have set your output style to use headline or sentence style capitalization, and now it is not capitalizing proper nouns and/or other terms (e.g. DNA, GPFs) correctly.
On the top menubar
Macs: EndNoteX8 → Preferences → Change Case
PCs: Edit → Preferences → Change Case
In the dialog box, enter a word the way it should display in article titles,
Click Add, then Save.
If you are using the thesis templates from Graduate Studies this step will save you much aggravation!
EndNote does a pretty good job creating citations and reference lists, but isn't perfect.
Let EndNote do the heavy lifting, then make a plain text copy of your document, and do the final cleanup yourself.
These videos show how to convert your document to a plain text. Mac PC
PC: EndNote Toolbar→Convert Citations & Bibliography→Convert to Plain Text
Mac: EndNote Toolbar→Tools→Convert to Plain Text
The plain text copy you create is totally divorced from EndNote so you can edit, cut, and paste without those pesty, hidden field codes.
WARNING!
Once you have removed field codes, you cannot reformat your citations and bibliography.
Keep a copy of your original document with EndNote field codes.
