EndNote Citation Guide - APA style

We have learnt how to install EndNote plug-in on your computer

Now lets learn how to cite a journal/book in a Microsoft Word file in APA (American Psychological Association) style. The reason for choosing APA style instead of others is because it is the most commonly used and widely accepted in institutions and organisations

Follow the steps below to cite from Google Scholar:

1. Click cite on the book/journal/paper you referred to
   
   
   
2. Select import into RefMan (your pc will automatically save it)
3. Go to Endnote 3.5 (alternatively, you can click Go To EndNote Web in M. Word)
   
4. Move your cursor to Collect tab, select Import References
5. File: Browse the file you saved in Step 2
   
6. Import Option: RefMan RIS
7. To: New group (you need to enter a group name later)
8. Click Import button
9. Now you have imported the reference into EndNote, go to M. Word and cite it
10. Click on the location where you want to cite it in your M. Word file (usually at the end of a sentence)
11. Select Find Citation
    
12. Enter key words such as Author name or Title of the book/journal (one key word is sufficient), then hit the Find button next to the search box
13. Click Insert 
14. Finally done, it should look like this in your M. Word file

P.S. If you would like to cite a journal from other websites, simply export the citation (without abstract) and save as RIS format, then continue from step 3.
