Existing referencing styles in Endnote may not always be exactly the same as the versions of those styles used at the University of Exeter. However, you can edit styles in Endnote to more closely match your requirements.
Remember: always manually proofread references produced by referencing management software yourself to ensure that they are accurate.
Adding a DOI to a Vancouver reference:
1. In your Endnote Library, go to "Tools", and choose "Output Styles" -> "Edit Vancouver".
2. On the left-hand side of the page, click on "Templates" underneath "Bibliography".
3. Scroll down to the "Journal Article" field, and add the following after the full stop: ` https://doi.org/`DOI|.
Note: DOI| adds the doi to your reference.
Use ` https://doi.org/` to add this as a preface to the doi if it is not already present - this will render it an actionable link.
As you search you need to keep track of all the material you will be using in your academic work so that you can cite and reference it appropriately.
Always check your module handbook for specific departmental guidance on the style required for your assessed works and dissertations. Check with your personal tutor or dissertation supervisor if you need clarification.
