Create a bibliography after each chapter in EndNote


You may wish to display a reference list at the end of each chapter of a manuscript in Word, but not at the end of the manuscript. 

From the EndNote Library: modify the style

  1. Go to 'Tools' > 'Output Styles' > 'Open Style Manager...' and choose the style you are using. For example, APA 6th.
  2. Select 'Edit' and then click 'Sections' from the left-hand panel when the style window opens. This allows you to create multiple reference lists for a single Word document.
  3. Select 'Create a bibliography for each section'.
  4. Save the style as a modified version of  APA 6th, such as APA 6th Bibliography.

In order to edit a style, you need to change EndNote's default folder locations: To change folder locations (https://manchester-uk.libanswers.com/teaching-and-learning/faq/185875)
