  Exporting Multiple Citations

  Note: You cannot download more than 20 citations at a time in Google Scholar. If you anticipate downloading many citations, try using the library's databases first.

  1. Click on the small star below each citation you want to export. This will add the citation to the My Library folder. 

  

  2. When you are done adding the citations you want to export, click on My Library at the top right of your screen. 

  

  3. Check the boxes next to all the citations you want to export or the "select all" box at the top. Then click the Download icon and select EndNote from the drop-down menu. This will download a .enw file containing your citations. 

  

  3. Import the .ENW file to EndNote using either Method #1 or Method #2

• Right-click on the file to Open With Endnote21 
• To import a .ENW file within your EndNote Library, select File > Import > and choose EndNote Import in the Import Options

EndNote reference management software, Clarivate Analytics, Version 21, 2023 

To add references from a Clinical Summary (DynaMed or UpToDate) you will have to enter the references manually.

To do this:

• Select New Reference from the References menu
• The reference default type is set to Electronic Book Section.
• Type the details into the relevant fields 
  • enter the title (UpToDate), [updated date, cited date] in the same field, as in the example

• Command + S or File and Save will save the reference
• Close the reference
• Check the preview to ensure it is displaying correctly and adjust as necessary

If you have a folder of references downloaded as PDFs, it is possible to import the files into your EndNote Library. To do this:

• EndNote 21 and Select File
• Select Import and then File
• Under Options, ensure the Import Option is set to PDF
• Choose a PDF as the Import File and Select Import
• The details of the reference complete with the attached PDF should appear in the Recently Added section of your EndNote Library

EndNote will attempt to source the full details of the reference through cross referencing the reference's doi (digital object identifier) through multiple sources. However, if EndNote is unable to source the details of an article, you will need to insert the detail manually or export the reference from a database and then attach the PDF to that reference.
