IMPORTING REFERENCES
References exported from the library catalogue or publisher platforms can be imported into your EndNote library in three ways:
Direct Exporting
References can be exported directly to your EndNote library from search results retrieved via the Library Search Box on the Library website. For more information on this process, see the Library EndNote 21 Training Notes.
Filter Files
Where direct export is not available many databases allow citations to be saved in a particular format and be imported into EndNote with a Filter File. Filter Files enable EndNote to ‘read’ the saved information to import the data into the appropriate fields. Support is available on the Filter Finder Clarivate website.
Connection Files
It is possible to access records in some library catalogues directly through EndNote.
Download and install the Western Sydney University Connection File: Western_Sydney_U, to search the Library Search Box from inside EndNote. You'll find instructions on Installing EndNote Connection Files in the Clarivate Knowledgebase.
