Journal Names

EndNote EndNote How To
1

Hi all,

I am aware of this tutorial http://www.endnote.com/training/tutorials/EndNoteX4/EndNote_X4.asp (Journal Names)

but it doesn’t really work for me :cry:

My Library is a mix of both imported and typed references but every Journal Term list I pick (my field of study is Geography/GIS/History) doesn’t solve the problem and I cannot get the full Journal Name in the formatted bibliography.

Is there a way to tell EndNote to simply use the field “Journal” in the database for the final format without using the method suggested in the tutorial?

Thanks in advance,

m 

P.S.

I use X3 version.

Hi Leanne, thanks for replying.

I had done what you said (editing the style):

  

  1. Tools → Open Term Lists → Journal Term List …d elete all the terms
  2. Edit → Output Styles…select the style.
  3. Journal Names (options) " Don’t Replace"
  4. Save as… different name

…right?

It doesn’t seem to be working though. I still get the generic Journa in both the preview and the final format.

As far as building the term list, that is something I wanted to avoid (I should look for the abbreviation of all the Journal I used, shouldn’t I?) and simply using the “Journal” field in the DB.

I also turned of the the Automatic Updating of Term Lists but no luck!

Thanks for you final pointer but (and it might be my fault) it doesn’t seem to solve my problem.

Shouldn’t it be working with the solutions you provided?

Thanks again,

m

EDIT: I am sorry, I forgot to mention that I use the Journal of Historical Geography Style

And you changed your document to use tht specific changed style (thru the format bibliography menu)? And your journal field in each record reflects what you want to see in the reference list?

Yes.

Here is a screenshot of the correct output using the AAG style…

while this is what I am talking about (the wrong one) Journal of Historical Geography style

This is the style downloaded from the EndNote website

I think there is something wrong in the style itself…

Thanks,
