When we upgraded to EndNote X we were able to place the connection file for our library catalogue in the C Drive. This means you can now easily connect with the library catalogue and download references directly into your library. No need to save the file onto your own filespace!

To search the library catalogue through EndNote X :

Open a library within EndNote.
Click on Tools then Connect
Scroll right and click on Connect again.
A box will appear called Choose a connection file. Locate Newcastle University Library in the alphabetical list. Either double click or select it and choose Connect in order to open the catalogue.
Type in your keywords, author or title in order to locate the items you are interested in.
Once the catalogue has found a list of matched items, a box will appear called Confirm Remote search. This will indicate the number of references, if there is a large number you may wish to close this and add more keywords to your search.
If you wish to display the results click on OK.
Double-click on a reference to expand it. If you want to import any references to your EndNote Library you must close any expanded references. Highlight the reference you want to import by clicking once on them. If you wish to import multiple references hold down Ctrl and click on them. Click on Copy References to. Then click on Choose Library. Select the EndNote Library you want to import the references into.

The references are then imported into that Library.
