Place a number in superscript at the end of a sentence for which you are writing an endnote. Most word processors have an endnote function that automatically places the number in superscript. In Microsoft Word, for example, click Insert, then scroll down to Reference. Select Footnote. Select Endnotes in the window that will appear. Click Insert. The endnote numbers will automatically progress in consecutive order. If you revise the document and remove some notes later, the program will renumber them correctly. The first endnote is numbered one.
Put the endnotes page at the end of the paper before the works cited page. The endnotes page should be entitled "Notes," with the title centered at the top of the page.
Format the Notes page correctly. Endnotes are numbered by the corresponding number in the text of a paper or book. All endnotes should be double-spaced with the first line of each note indented five spaces. The second line is not indented, resulting in a hanging indentation. Place a period followed by a space after each numeral.
