Direct Export Providers

Many information providers have Web sites that include a direct export option that allows you to send copies of references directly to an EndNote library. The direct export process automatically selects an EndNote import filter to map bibliographic information into the appropriate EndNote fields. All you need to do is select the EndNote library into which the data should be imported.

Start by opening the EndNote library into which the data should be imported. This "direct export" or "direct download" method does away with the additional steps of saving the references to a text file, and then importing that file with the appropriate import filter.

in some cases, you may be required to select an appropriate filter. When the direct export process is started, EndNote first checks the file for tags that are specific to a common import type, such as the EndNote desktop, Web of Science™ Core Collection, or RIS format. If no match is found, EndNote searches through all filters for a vendor ID and database ID that match the file. If no match is found, you are prompted to select a filter. You can also check our Web site at http://www.endnote.com for updated information and import filters.

The systems in the list below provides a direct export of references into EndNote. At the time this file was updated, the URLs worked and took you to the providers Web site.

This is not a complete list, and the number of providers keeps growing, so check with your information providers to find out whether they participate!

Note: UTF-8 (Unicode) is the default character encoding for text, XML, and HTML export from the product. RTF uses ASCII encoding for ASCII characters and "code page escapes" to encode characters beyond ASCII.

Note: Because of the way that Internet Explorer and Safari handle MIME types, they may try to save your references to a file on your desktop. You may need to use Mozilla Firefox to access the Web site and export references into EndNote. This application allows you to specify how to handle data when you initiate a direct export, so you can select the EndNote application.
