Hi Kirsty,

 

Alternatively, you could try putting each part of the name into EndNote as a separate author (i.e. on separate lines), leaving out the ampersand and with commas after the two word parts, e.g.

 

The Minerals,

Metals

Materials Society,

 

Which gives you both a correct citation and reference:

 

(The Minerals, Metals, & Materials Society, 2015)

 

The Minerals, Metals, & Materials Society. (2015).

 

Good luck!

 

Anne

Hi Kirsty,

 

Works if you edit the author field and add the comma after the name and two commas if there is a comma in the organisation name

 

e.g. The Minerals,, Metals & Materials Society,

Hi

 

In EndNote Online, how do you enter a corporate author that has a comma within its name?

 

I’m trying to reference The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society.  Normally for a corporate author I’d put two commas at the end so that EndNote didn’t abbreviate the name, but this seems to be overridden by the internal comma.  I’ve tried:

 

EndNote entry: The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society,,

Produces reference list: The Minerals, M.M.S.

Citation: (The Minerals, 2015)

 

EndNote entry: The Minerals,, Metals & Materials Society

Reference list: The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society

Citation: (The Minerals, 2015)

 

EndNote entry: The Minerals,, Metals & Materials Society,,

Reference list: The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society,,

Citation: (The Minerals, 2015)

 

What we want is

Reference list: The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society

Citation: (The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society, 2015)

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Kirsty
