Searching via EndNote

Searching external databases via EndNote is a simple option when it is not important to maintain the functionality of the base’s original interface. This method is recommended when searching for a given references. It is not recommended for thematic searches where you are looking for all references on a topic.

See more on importing references from databases.

How to:

    • Select the relevant database under ONLINE SEARCH in the left margin
      Bildet viser databasene som kan søkes via EndNote
    • Fill in the search fields and click Search
      Bildet viser søk i ekstern database
    • The results are displayed in a window for temporary references and end up in the group bearing the remote base’s name under the Online Search groups
    • When you want to transfer references from the external base to your own EndNote library, mark the desired references and click on the button Add the selected online records to your local library
    • Enter search criteria and click «Search»
    • To transfer references from the external base to your own EndNote library, select the desired references and click on the icon «Copy to Local Library»

    • It is a good habit to end by checking that the references were correctly transferred to your EndNote library
