Adding text to Bibliography Entrys

EndNote EndNote Product Suggestions
1

I would like to be able to add text/remarks to certain references in my bibliography.

In an output style that gives the author and/or year within the text, one has the option to add remarks like “see for example” or page numbers via “Edit and Manage Citations” using the “Prefix” and “Suffix” fields. However, I’m using a numbered output style, so the additional remarks would have to appear in the bibliography entry. So far, the only option I’ve found is to add them after turning off the field codes at the very end of the writing process – not the most elegant solution.

I’ve attached some examples. The remarks are highlighted in red.

Thanks for your reply.

So if I understood correctly this means, if I want to be able to add comments to my references, I need to do the whole bibliography another way?

Well, since this publication is quite done, I think I’ll go with the less elegant solution (remove field codes and make changes manually) rather than re-doing all the citations using Word Footnotes.

I still suggest adding this feature for future endnote releases.

Hi,

I want to do something similar to Sybil, using Endnote X7, but I couldn’t find any solution. I am grouping multiple references as letters under the same number, and I though that one possibility would be to create the notes as for instance “Figure” reference type. This could work if I could define such “Figure” to not be numbered as a reference. Do you know if inserting a reference without numbering it, or lettering in this case, is possible?

In this example, the sentence “Oxidation of organolithiums:” would be defined as “Figure” reference type and not counted as a reference in the bibliography.
