Importing references from Google Scholar

Posted on by

It is possible to import references from Google Scholar into EndNote.
In Google Scholar, click on Scholar Preferences, scroll down and under Bibliography Manager click on “show links to enable import into EndNote”.
When you do a search in Scholar, you’ll then see a link in each result to “Import into EndNote”. Clicking on the link opens EndNote and allows you to choose the Library to import the reference into.
At present I can only see how to do this one reference at a time.

RefWorks trial

We currently (until 10th Jan 2008)have trial access to RefWorks, an alternative bibliographical software package to EndNote. I’d like some feedback from people who are using EndNote about what they think of this software, so if you have time to try it out, please contact me (moira.bent@ncl.ac.uk) and I’ll send you log in details to get you started.
Thanks

Scopus and RAS

We have discovered that when using Scopus and Endnote on the RAS, trying to download references from Scopus is slightly different. Once you have chosen the export format, a window appears with the options “Find”, “Save” and “Cancel” (instead of “Open”).
To save your references into Endnote you need to choose the “Save” option and save them to your filespace.
Open your Endnote library and click on File, Import.
Click on the Choose File option and find the file you saved.
Under Import Option choose Reference Manager(RIS)
Click on Import.

If you use Scopus on the network, it still works as before.
