Due to the way EBSCO presents data in Business Source Premier, dates may not display in your EndNote library as you might want them to. Dates (e.g. June 15, 2006) are presented numerically; 2006 appears in the Year field as expected, but June 15 appears in the Date field as 06 15. If you want the month to display as a word, you must go through downloaded search results and correct the Date field manually. You can also do a find-and-replace (Control+R) to save yourself time.
