EndNote is a powerful software program that helps you organise and format references. UWA students and staff can download it for free from the UWA Library EndNote Guide.

Once you have downloaded and installed EndNote, you will need to:

1. Download the Legal Reference Types:

1. Right-click on this link: Australian Guide to Legal Citation 4th ed (AGLC4) - Reference Types (Macintosh users should click on the link while holding down the Control key on your keyboard. If this does not seem to work in Safari or Chrome, try using Firefox as a browser).
   • In Firefox or Chrome, select "Save Link As".
   • In Safari select "Download Linked File As".
   • In Internet Explorer, select "Save Target As".
2. Save the file to your desktop or any other convenient folder with the name: reftypetableaglc4.xml
   • Note that you can save the Legal Reference Types Table anywhere (providing you remember where you saved it!).

2. Install the Legal Reference Types Table in EndNote:

1. Open EndNote and click on Edit in the menu (on a Mac click on EndNote X8 instead of Edit) then Preferences then Reference Types.
2. Click on the Import button in the lower half of window and select the file you just saved.
3. Click on Open - Apply - OK (on a Mac click on Open - Save).
4. Close the Edit Preferences window.

3. Download the AGLC4_UWA_2019 EndNote style. Ensure you follow the 'Installing a style' instructions in the EndNote guide. 

4. Select the UWA AGLC4 style as your Output Style in EndNote:

1. From within EndNote, choose Select Another Style... in the dropdown styles window. This is in the top left of the library (Windows) or in the bottom right of the library (Mac).
2. Scroll through the list of styles, select AGLC4_UWA_2019, and click on Choose.
3. Some Mac users may be unable to see the AGLC4 style in the list of styles. If this happens, open your Applications folder, then the EndNote X[version] folder. You should see a folder named Styles. Drag your saved AGLC4 style from step 2 above, from the Downloads folder into this folder. You should now be able to see AGLC4 in the style list (don't worry if there is a bit of extra text after the style name, though you can rename it if you like).

 Tip! 

The University of Technology Sydney (UTS) EndNote Law:Tips Guide contains a lot of extra information regarding:

• Adding pinpoints to references in your footnotes
• Organising your reference list into categories
• Editing your reference list
• Ibid and (n footnote number) - which is really useful for consecutive and non-consecutive subsequent footnotes.

We recommend that you review these tips in conjunction with the information in this guide.
