More on filtering <strong>references</strong><br />

No filter is perfect, <strong>an</strong>d all <strong>references</strong> should be checked after import. For this reason, it is often better to<br />

import <strong>references</strong> <strong>into</strong> a temporary <strong>library</strong>, <strong>an</strong>d leave them there until they c<strong>an</strong> be checked against the file of<br />

downloaded <strong>references</strong> <strong>an</strong>d amended. They c<strong>an</strong> then be tr<strong>an</strong>sferred to the perm<strong>an</strong>ent <strong>library</strong>.<br />

Shortcut when using Firefox:<br />

If you use Firefox as your web browser, you c<strong>an</strong> shortcut the filtering process explained above.<br />

When you are saving <strong>references</strong> from the database, Firefox will display a dialogue box. In this dialogue box,<br />

select the Open with option, <strong>an</strong>d use the drop-down menu to find your <strong>EndNote</strong> software:<br />

Click the OK button.<br />

<strong>EndNote</strong> will now begin the import process. It will open a dialogue box showing a list of filters. Choose the<br />

correct filter.<br />

<strong>EndNote</strong> will complete the import process.

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
