How to shorten by footnote titles when using short form

EndNote EndNote How To
1

Hi,

I’m trying to work out if it’s possible for Endnote to shorten the title when using short form in the footnote section.

For example the first time a reference appears it would look like this:

William McGucken, Scientists, Society, and State : The Social Relations of Science Movement in Great Britain, 1931-1947 (Columbus: Ohio State University Press, 1984), p. 1.

Using the shortened form it looks like this:

McGucken, Scientists, Society, and State : The Social Relations of Science Movement in Great Britain, 1931-1947, p. 1.

Is there any way to change it so it appears without the second part of the title after the colon (:), like this:

McGucken, Scientists, Society, and State, 1931-1947, p. 1.

Thank you.

Thanks for replying.

I’ve been using the short form but I don’t know how to configure it so it only puts the first part of the title up.

I’m using Chicago 16th A

The field looks like this:

Author, Short Title|,　Volume|,　Cited Pages|.

How exactly do you do this?
