Output styles are the files that are used to control the appearance of references in a bibliography.

With EndNote over 6000 style files are available in the EndNote Output Style Manager.

APA 5th or 6th are author-date styles that are very well configured for most reference types and are already in your EndNote program. It is recommended you work with one of these until you have arranged to have your preferred style accessible within EndNote.

For more output styles, visit the Clarivate EndNote site to download individual styles, or you can choose to Download all styles (over 6000 bibliographic styles).

These styles can be used with either the Windows or Mac versions of EndNote.
