Sending a group of references to EndNote Online:
5. Click the pin button within each search result that you wish to save.
6. Next to where you signed in, select the Pin button to view your selected references.
7. Reselect (by ticking boxes) those results that you want to send to EndNote Online.
8. Select the 3 dots then EndNote Basic to send the results directly to EndNote Online. Alternatively: we're currently experiencing problems with the 'EndNote Basic' option so you may need to click Export RIS instead. With either method, be even more careful than usual when checking the resulting references in your work (e.g. an article may be identified by EndNote as a book 'reference type' which will alter the details presented). Any amendments required should be made within the EndNote record rather than directly in your Word document (otherwise, any revisions you make revert back to the incorrect version later on). You can change an EndNote record's reference type by clicking on the record's title, clicking in the 'reference type' field, selecting the correct format and clicking 'save'.

Some resources don't provide options for exporting references (e.g. public websites). Therefore, you may need to manually create some references as follows:
1. Connect to EndNote Online (via Web of Science).
2. Click on the Collect tab followed by New Reference.
3. Select the relevant Reference Type from the drop-down menu. To reference a book chapter in an edited book, select 'book section'.
4. Enter all of the information required for your reference in each of the necessary fields/boxes. Be particularly careful that you're both accurate and consistent in entering the names of authors as shown below. Otherwise, EndNote Online will not able to interpret them correctly when adapting them to the required referencing style (e.g. Harvard (Bath) or APA) and they will appear incorrectly in your reference list.
5. After entering all the information, click save. If necessary, return to the same reference to add/amend details another time.
