How to add Citations using Word

If you are like me and want to use the reference manager imbedded in Word, you might realise that the styles available (i.e APA, MLA, etc), are not what you were looking for. In Word 2007, 2010, 2011, the typical Journal Paper styles are not automatically there to choose from. So if you are like me and want to use the IEEE style there are several steps that need to be done.

  1. Instal additional word reference styles
  2. Under reference choose the style you wanna use
  3. Enter source material
  4. Insert citation into the text
    1. In your document, click where you want to insert the citation.
    2. On the Document Elements tab, under References, click Manage.
    3. In the Citations List, double-click the source that you want to cite.

Easy breezy!
