Step 4: Select Your Citation Style
Output Styles (Citation Styles)
- Endnote comes preloaded with a few popular citation styles (called Output styles in EndNote) on the EndNote Toolbar.
- The style you choose will change the way your in-text citations and bibliography are formatted in your Word document.
To select a citation style/output style for your EndNote library:
- Go to the Tools menu on the top toolbar and select Output Styles
- Select the desired style
- If your style is not listed click on "Open Style Manager"
- A pop-up window will display with a list of styles. Scroll through the list to find the desired style and check off the style you wish to add. Tip: For AMA, select JAMA
- Close out of the pop-up and the citation style should be automatically saved in your Output Styles list from now on.
