EndNote 21

A basic guide for installing, navigating and using EndNote 21.

Export from Databases

Every database has its Export feature in a slightly different location or a different process

You want to look for an "RIS Export" or "Export to EndNote" option. 

Please note that some databases may give you two EndNote export options. You'll generally want to use "Export to EndNote" or "Export to EndNote Desktop" if you have EndNote installed on your computer. If you see "Export to EndNote Online" or "Export to EndNote Web", this will send your results to that version of EndNote in your web browser. The web version of EndNote is not as robust as the desktop version.

Exporting from PubMed, EBSCOhost databases, and Scopus

This section of our tutorial video covers how to export results form several database platforms to EndNote desktop. Watch from where this video starts (at 1:12) until about 6:00 to see how this works in PubMed, EBSCOhost databases, and Scopus.
