Citing Sources
If I have a hard copy of a reference like a newspaper article or book, how do I attach that to my endnote library?
Occasionally, especially with older material, you may run into sources of information that you have only found a hard copy of. When this happens, go to the computer lab on the first floor and scan the document using Adobe Acrobat. It will automatically turn it into a pdf file that can be easily attached to your endnote library.
What if Rutgers does not give me access to the book or article that I’m looking for?
Occasionally you will run into the problem of finding a reference to a book or article that is not provided electronically by the Rutgers Library. Should you give up? Of course not! Rutgers is a member of a consortium of universities that share information and resources. Follow the steps below to request books and articles that you have been unable to locate.
