Hi , I have had a question from one of our students about using Endnote to reference different types of theses in APA. For masters and doctorates APA requires "Upublished master thesis" or "Unpublished doctoral dissertation" respectively. The Endnote template seems to give us just "Unpublished PhD" etc. Do we really need to create two different reference types to handle this, ie to insert either the word "thesis" or "dissertation" depending on the thesis type? This is the basic difficulty before we even start on the issue of theses from DAI and UMI, which APA has specific ways of referencing. It also distinguishes between referencing items from inside US abnd outside US. Has anyone expereince with using Endnote for any of this? Many thanks, Gary
