EndNote style file shared by user
An EndNote user at the University of Oxford has created a draft EndNote style that meets the style conventions of the History Faculty and made it available to share via the Oxford University IT department.

This is a draft file and has not been created by the Faculty itself.  If you use this style, please ensure that you meet the conventions for your course and consult your supervisor/tutor if you have any questions about the citation and bibliography formats.

An explanation of the EndNote style and the style file to download and add to EndNote is available from portfolio.it.ox.ac.uk/resource/article/endnote-output-style-history-oxford-university/x6

RefWorks: History Faculty Style updates

Posted on by
2

The History Faculty Style in RefWorks has been updated today. There are now two versions of the style:  ‘History Faculty, Oxford – Notes & bib. (beta)’ and ‘History Faculty, Oxford – Bibliography only (beta)’. The first version is the one you will need to format your footnotes and create a bibliography at the same time using Write-N-Cite. The second version of the style is the one that allows you to create a stand-alone bibliography from a list of references in RefWorks.

N.B. If the History Faculty style was saved as one of your favourites in RefWorks you will now need to resave both versions as it will have been lost from your list during the update.

We have also updated the style to solve the problem of edited works appearing out of sequence at the top of bibliographies. Please note you will need to check your references to make sure the Reference Type is ‘Book, Edited’ and that the editors are in the ‘Editors’ field rather than the ‘Series Editors’ field.

The History Faculty Style in RefWorks has been updated today. It now allows you to create both your citations and bibliography at the same time using Write-N-Cite instead of having to create a separate stand-alone bibliography.

Important: please remember to only put your citations in footnotes with this style as it does not support in-text citations.

If the History Faculty style was saved as one of your favourites in RefWorks you will now need to resave it as it will have been lost from your list during the update.

There will be a RefWorks Introduction training session for History graduates and researchers: Wednesday 10th March, 15:00-16:00, Computing Room, History Faculty, George Street. To book a place click here.
