- how a reference is formatted in the bibliography
- which fields appear in the Reference window, eg, a Journal Article reference type has fields for Journal, Volume, Issue, while a Book reference type includes fields for Editor and Publisher.
Suggestions for using reference types:
- Use Edited Book for books edited by one or more authors
- Use Book Section for references to parts of books (eg. a chapter, or one article in a published conference proceedings)
- The Conference Proceedings reference type is best used for unpublished proceedings
- Use the Electronic Source reference type for citing material from a Web page or FTP site.
- If you are citing a journal article that appears both online and in print, most style guides recommend that you use the print information and cite it as a regular journal article.
- Email discussions should be cited as Personal Communications, just like any other correspondence.
- Fields such as Keywords, Abstract, Notes will only appear in the final bibliography if you choose the show all option. These fields can store up to eight pages of text.
Close the reference by clicking on the X button in the top right-hand corner of the New Reference window. Closing also saves the reference.
