I use styles that require this. Journal articles titles are mostly in lower
case, while book titles are capitalized. This should be part of the style
specification, but EndNote doesn't support it. BibTeX has a simple and
elegant solution: type the titles as you would if they were capitalized,
use curly brackets for material that should always be capitalized. Thus the
library entry:
{SOAR}: {A}n Architecture for Cognition
would be typeset:
SOAR: An Architecture for Cognition
for styles that require capitalization, and
SOAR: An architecture for cognition
for the other styles.
This is simple for the users and simple to program. It should be in EndNote.
