When importing references into EndNote Basic: watch out for titles and other information in ALL-CAPS and misplaced data. Lastly, while it takes a little time to fill in fields for a new reference from scratch, remember that you would have to type this text when writing out your bibliography later, and EndNote will do most of the bibliography formatting for you. When you import from other databases, make sure that you check the imported references to ensure that you're capturing enough data for a proper citation. In other databases, you will need to export a file which you will then need to import into EndNote Basic. Look for options to "Export to EndNote Basic" (or "EndNote Web").

The format of in-text citation depends on the style used in your paper.
