How do I input Conference Papers into EndNote?
Answer
The Conference Paper and Conference Proceedings reference types in EndNote are intended for unpublished verbal presentations of papers/proceedings. These will not display correctly for published conference papers. These are most commonly entered as a Book Section - when the papers are from a book(s). See the example below.
Occasionally conference papers may be published as part of a regular series with volume/issue and page numbers (eg: like for the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences) - in which case they can alternatively be entered as Journal Articles.
Published Conference Papers
Using the Book Section reference type:
