The solution.?ĮndNote desktop (NOT EndNote online) can inset the correct journal format for you automatically, but only if you configure Term Lists for your library (a look up table which is easy to create). You could amend your reference in your library, but this would be time consuming (for all references requiring this) and you would have to reverse the change if you then wanted to publish in a journal requiring the full journal name. This poses a potential problem in that, if you imported a reference that contained the full journal name, but want to write for a journal that requires an abbreviated name in the referencing style, EndNote can only insert the data it has (in this case a full journal name) which would be incorrect. When you import references of journal articles from databases, they arrive with either the abbreviated OR full journal name as part of the reference, depending on how that database stores references. To synchronise the changes you make back to the online account of the library owner, select Library > Sync when you are in the shared library. Similarly, changes made by the owner will be saved to the online account of the library owner when they select Library > Sync and then back to your library when you select Library > Sync. In EndNote desktop, go to File> Open shared library.Following the instructions for accepting that invitation.You will receive an email indicating someone has shared a library with you.Choose to give them Read only or Read/Write access.Enter the email address of the person you want to share the library with.Synchronise your desktop library with your EndNote online account.To share a desktop library with someone else, they will need to have an EndNote online account (for authorisation purposes).
