Important information for all reference types
When entering a reference into EndNote, you only need to include the basic data. Unless stated otherwise in this
guide do not include punctuation or formatting such as colons, full stops, brackets, and italics, or text such as In,
Retrieved from, ed., Ed. in the reference. The Chicago 17
th
B Curtin X9 style will include this automatically when
formatting the reference.
Manually populating the author field in EndNote
When entering personal authors or editors into EndNote, use the format Last Name, First Name
Example: Shakespeare, William
When entering an organisation as the author, include a comma at the end of the organisation’s name so
EndNote displays the complete name in the reference
Example: Department of Health,
Enter each new author on a separate line
You must use correct capitalisation for author details. EndNote will display the author’s information with the
exact capitalisation you have used
Example: Smith, John
Capitalisation
The Chicago referencing style uses headline style capitalisation, where all significant words in the title start with a
capital letter (e.g. Philosophy and Poetry: A New Look at an Old Quarrel). Stop words such as: a, is, it, at, on, etc. are
not capitalised.
When two or more capitalised letters appear in a title (e.g. ANZ, USA), EndNote will incorrectly display the
information as Anz or Usa as the style is set to display as headline style capitalisation. To ensure abbreviations,
acronyms etc. display correctly:
1. Select Edit (Windows) or EndNote (Mac) and click on Preferences
2. Select the Change Case option
3. Enter the abbreviation/ acronym etc. with the correct capitalisation and click Apply and OK.

Manual changes to references
Chicago B is a complex referencing style and in some instances EndNote may not be able to accommodate all the
elements or formatting required for a particular reference type. If manual changes are required, you will need to
make these once you have finished creating your reference list in Word and converted your document to plain text.
To do this:
1. In the CWYW toolbar click Convert Citations and Bibliography (Windows) or Tools (MAC) and select Convert
to Plain Text
2. A new unsaved document with no field codes (not linked to EndNote) will be created
3. Save it with a new file name (your original document with the field codes will be unchanged and still be
linked to EndNote)
4. Manually edit the references in the plain text copy of the document
