EndNote

The library's search tool, discoverE, works with EndNote in three different ways.​

1. Export items from discoverE as an RIS file and import them into either desktop EndNote or EndNote Web.
2. You can export items from discoverE and import them into EndNote Web.
3. You can use the EndNote connection file for the library catalog (see box at bottom of this page).

ALWAYS CHECK THE REFERENCES IMPORTED INTO ENDNOTE. Data clean-up is usually required.

Export discoverE records to EndNote desktop by doing the following:

• Click "Add to eshelf" next to the item name to save the item into your eshelf. If you login first, you will save the item into your own eshelf and it will stay there. If you don't login, you will save the items to a temporary eshelf that will be erased once you finish your discoverE session.
• Once you have added everything you want to add, click "eshelf" link at the top right of the page.

• Select the items to export.
• At the top right of the list of items in your eshelf, there is a dropdown box that says "Select how to save" -- choose "Push to Export RIS" and click "Go."
• This will create a .ris file. Save it on your computer.
   

• Open EndNote.
• Choose "File/import."
• In the window that opens, navigate to the saved .ris file.
• Change the import option to "Reference Manager RIS". Click "Import".

Export discoverE records to EndNote WEB by doing the following:

• Click "Add to eshelf" next to the item name to save the item into your eshelf. If you login first, you will save the item into your own eshelf and it will stay there. If you don't login, you will save the items to a temporary eshelf that will be erased once you finish your discoverE session.
• Once you have added everything you want to add, click "eshelf" link at the top right of the page.

• Select the items to export.
• At the top right of the list of items in your eshelf, there is a dropdown box that says "Select how to save" -- choose "Push to EndNote" and click "Go."
• A window will open prompting you to login to your EndNote Web account. Once you do that the records will load into EndNote Web. Then you will have to transfer them into your desktop EndNote -- by using the sync feature in Endnote X6 and X7 or the transfer method in older versions of Endnote -- if you want them there.

The EmoryU connection file that comes with the EndNote product is out of date, because of system upgrades. To search discoverE from within EndNote, download the updated Emory Catalog connection file from the link above. Save this file in the Connections folder of your Endnote Program files.
