Errors in our APA 6th book

I checked our copy of the Publication Manual of the APA and we do have the earlier version of the 6th edition with errors .
Look at the sample one-experiment paper (figure 2.1) page 41 . The words “Running head:” in the header is at the top of every page, this is the the wrong version.
This is the correct version:

Here is a link to the Reprint Corrections

We'll have to go shopping or see if funds are available now.

APA 6th for EndNote

EndNote has posted definitions for the new APA 6th edition styles, but they have to be downloaded from the Endnote support page and loaded separately into EndNote.

You can get them two ways:
1) Directly. The link is http://www.endnote.com/support/enapa6thstyle.asp
2) In EndNote go to the Help menu and choose Web Support and look for the APA 6th link.

I've placed links on the libguides for Counseling and for Psychology. Any suggestions for other places it should go?
