Method 5: Import File

· Requires saving references selected as a text file (*.txt) and importing it to EndNote library using an appropriate filter

· Used for very few databases, e.g. Factiva, where the references cannot be exported to EndNote library directly

· Refer to EndNote LibGuide> Importing references for the specific steps

17

· No limit to the number of references in each library but < 100,000 is recommended

· Always move/copy/rename/delete both the main *.enl file & associated *.Data folder together

· Always make a backup copy

· Save as a compressed library (*.enlx) for larger files

Tips

18

· Groups provide a useful way of organising the references into subsets for easy viewing

· Remove duplicatesReferences > Find duplicates

Custom groups

• References are added manually to each group

Smart Groups

• Uses search criteria to dynamically update references in them

What is LaTeX?

33

About LaTeX• A document markup language & document preparation

system for high quality typesetting

• Based on TeX, a low-level markup and programming language created by Donald Knuth in 1977 for use in computer typesetting

• A LaTeX document is a plain text file containing the document content with additional markup

• When the source file is processed by the macro package, it produces documents in several formats (DVI, PDF, PostScript, PNG, JPEG, etc)

34

Using LaTeXRequires a bunch of tools, minimally,

• TeX distribution - a collection of packages and programs (compilers, fonts, and macro packages)

• Text editor E.g. TeXworks, LyX (Windows, Linux and Mac OS), TeXstudio (cross platform open source), WinEdt (Windows), etc

• Viewer (DVI or PDF)

TeX distributions DescriptionsMacTeX TeX Live based distribution for Mac OS XMiKTeX For Windows

TeX Live Cross-platform

35

Method 1: Embed the references at the end of the LaTeX document as shown in the following example.Just before the \end{document} command,

\begin{thebibliography}{9} \bibitem{lamport94} Leslie Lamport, \emph{\LaTeX: A Document Preparation System}. Addison Wesley, Massachusetts, 2nd Edition, 1994.\end{thebibliography}

37

Create a bibliography in a LaTex document

Method 2: Using the ancillary tool BibTeX

· BibTeX provides for the storage of all references in an external, flat-file database which can be linked to any LaTeX document. Citations can then be made to any reference that is contained within the file.

· A BibTeX database is a plain text file and is stored as a *.bib file which is easily edited using a GUI management system such as JabRef or Mendeley (cross platform)

JabRef

41

JabRef • Is an open source reference management software

(Free)

• Current version 2.9.2, http://jabref.sourceforge.net

• Is Java-based, so is platform/OS independent

• Uses BibTeX files (*.bib) as its native format

• Provides a easy-to-use GUI for editing BibTeX entries

• Provides filters to import other file format (e.g. *.ris) and data from databases such as Medline, JSTOR, etc

42

Exercise

• Create a *.bib file in JabRef

• Import references from – Web of Science– Scopus– FindMore– Google Scholar

• Generate bibtex keys• Create groups to manage bibtex entries• Find duplicates• Export > HTML table (with abstract & bibtex)
