Library Services
The Collect menu includes a number of options for adding references:
When viewing a webpage or an online resource, you can ‘capture’ references and add them directly to EndNote Online or EndNote Desktop. You need to install a ‘bookmarklet’ which will allow you to do so:
To capture a reference or references:
Check the reference in your library to make sure all the bibliographic fields have been successfully captured. This can depend on the information available on the page you are trying to capture. Try to find a page with the full record information.
In many cases, you will find that the bookmarklet tool is not the best way to capture references as it works better for some databases than others. You might have better results using the online search within EndNote Online or exporting bibliographic details from online databases.
When you are viewing an article record on an academic journal website or database, EndNote Click will display a pop up icon on the left hand side of the screen if there is a UCL subscribed or freely available PDF version of the article.
If there isn't a PDF available, the pop up icon won't appear, so in this case, you will need to find an alternative method of adding the reference to EndNote.
Click on the pop up and this will add it to your locker, the storage area in EndNote Click. The saving option defaults to saving to EndNote.com but on the left hand side menu of your locker there is an option to 'Export to EndNote Desktop'. If you click on this, it will create a RIS file and you can save and add it to your library as for other online export methods.
This process will also attach the PDF to the reference in your EndNote library. The free version of EndNote Click only provides you with 100 MB of storage in your EndNote Click locker, so once you have added the reference to your EndNote Desktop you may wish to delete the PDF from your EndNote Click locker.
You can export reference directly from Explore into EndNote or EndNote Online.
You can export references directly from Web of Science into EndNote or EndNote Online:
Your references will be in the Unfiled group. From the ‘Sort by’ drop-down menu you can sort the group to see the most recently imported items.
In Web of Science, search results which are already in your EndNote Online Library will have an icon displayed.
If you are using a computer without EndNote Desktop installed, for some databases a direct export to EndNote request will push the references into EndNote Online. Always check the references carefully. If the database you are using has no option to export directly you need to create a text file to import the references into EndNote Online.
