The information in footnotes is different from the information provided in APA annotated bibliographies. Otherwise I think Rory is correct, you are likely to need to resort to a hand sort and I would not recommend this at all.Footnotes are a way for the author to provide additional content to their papers without distracting the reader from the text.
While it will take some time to put the reference list together it will be pretty close to completely accurate and you will now have the start of an ongoing reference system for other papers. Therefore you are likely to be able to track all the references in your paper in a few minutes. Of course, for weird references, etc, one can always enter them manually. It also works with Amazon and several other publishers.
Most journals and such things as PubMed do the same. Zotero has the nice feature that if you find the book or article you want on many sites -most university libraries, and, I beleive most national libaries allow you to download the complete reference at the click of a mouse. It will even change styles if you suddenly realise that you have been using the wrong style. Zotero will automatically sort and number the references to meet your needs and will format each reference correctly. It will take a couple of hours to install Zotero, get the references and redo the references in the paper but it is likely faster and less error-prone than trying to rejigg endnotes to function as a reference list or bibliography. Zotero Styles and redo the references properly. While it may look like a lot of work, I'd suggest installing Zotero, making sure that you have the requisite style needed for the paper you are writing-probably included in the default styles in Zotero but if not see Basically an endnote is just a footnote moved to the back of the paper or book.Ī bibliography ( I tend to use 'references' rather than bibliography but they are much the same thing) is a listing of works cited and that is all. Endnotes are sequential from the first page of the document to the last page of the text, often contain more than one bibliographical item and may have rather extended discussions of an issue. I am assuming that the endnotes are simply references and not true endnotes where in most cases one expects more than just a reference. You are not going to like the answer but it is not to use endnotes in the first place. It might have been better to use a bibliographic utility from the start, rather than be trying to generate a bibliography from a series of ad hoc end- or foot-notes. I think you may have approached the matter from the wrong end.
