Whats an endnote in document? What do u do with it?

Answer 1

Endnotes and footnotes mean the same thing. When you cite a source in your document, you have to give credit to its author. Footnotes are usually placed at the bottom of each page written, while endnotes are placed all on one page at the end of the document. They are numbered in order from 1 to however many you use. The first time you use a particular source, you have to write down EVERYTHING (author's name--last name first in footnote/endnotes; regular way in bibliography; name of the source--underlined; year it was published; publisher's name; city of publication; and page numbers used. From the second use onward, you can put either "ibid, p.??" or "the author's last name/part of title if more than one of his/her books used/page numbers". A BIBLIOGRAPHY is the listing of all your sources in alphabetical order AFTER the endnotes, with author's name in proper order.
(ex. of footnote/endnotes--I'll use capital letters to show underlining since I can't do it otherwise. LOL):
1. Smith, John. MY PILGRIM ANCESTORS (New York, NY: Penguin Publisher, 1998), p. 75.
2. ibid (this is Latin for "in the place cited"; used only immediately after the first use of the source) OR: 2. Smith, Pilgrim, p.75.
Bibliography entry: MY PILGRIM ANCESTORS. John Smith. New York, NY: Penguin Publishers, 1998.

Answer 2

An endnote is like a footnote but is put at the end of the paper or written work. The endnote is most commonly used in research papers and essays when you have to copy a sentence or phrase from another person/author/source and have to document where you found that information. This prevents illegal copying of another's work and saying it is your own work.
