repeated citations; and several libraries or one?

Hello,

On repeated citations as asked below, you can use a
combination of 
EndNote and Word footnote cross referencing. Use EndNote to
insert the 
short form of the footnote (ie author only) and use Word to
create the 
cross reference number - (n x). I find that this works ok,
and EndNote 
will handle moving the order of text and therefore adjust
the footnotes 
so that the long form appears first and the short form
thereafter, but 
Word won't renumber the cross references properly.

A question about number of libraries:

Is it better to have one library containing all one's
references (with 
good keywords so it can be easily sorted) or to have several
libraries?

best wishes,
Sandy
