How to use the EndNote reference management software

Submit your document to Turnitin

Once you have completed an assignment, you will need to convert your citations to plain text before you can submit it to a system such as Turnitin.

To convert your citations to plain text:

  1. Save your document
  2. Under the EndNote tab in word, select "Convert Citations and Bibliography"
  3. Select "Convert to Plain Text"
  4. A pop-up window will appear asking if you would like to save a backup copy before converting to plain text. Select "continue" (assuming you saved your document as instructed in Step 1). This will create a new, read-only copy of your document with the citation coding removed. The citations and bibliography/reference list should be retained in your selected style
  5. Save this version of your document before submitting it to Turnitin.
