BLEeAssessmentProject: RefMe Demonstration 26th November 2015. Academic integrity | York St John. Endnote vs …. well, everything else. Just before I handed in my thesis two things happened, which, up to then I had thought were PhD student urban myths : A whole journal came out full of articles that ‘scooped’ my thesis topic (gah!!) Endnote bugged out and turned all my 400 odd references into gibberish (instant coronary!!!) My supervisor solved crisis number one with a single phone call. “It’s a good thing Inger,” he said cheerfully “Just point out in the introduction that the journal was published after you finished and this is evidence that the topic is hot “.
Mischief managed (this strategy works really well by the way, even if you don’t have to employ it from desperation). The Endnote problem was a doozy though. No students on the PhD floor at the University of Melbourne had experienced anything like it. Frantic calls to the library resulted in pointers to some very helpful material, but that didn’t help. Thank you internet! But no thank you Endnote, you failed me in my hour of need. I liked Mendeley instantly. .
