How To Export Records Into EndNote: EBSCOhost

This guide includes instructions for exporting records into EndNote from the APU library catalog, several APU databases, and Google Scholar. This guide was originally created by Michelle Spomer.

Follow These Instructions:

APU subscribes to over 40 databases through the EBSCOhost provider. All EBSCOhost databases will have the same look and feel, and will use the same procedures for exporting records. For a list of all EBSCOhost databases at APU, click here.

  • Perform a search in an EBSCOhost database.
  • In the results list, click the folder icon to the right of the title for each item you'd like to export (see graphic below).

  • If you're looking at an individual record, click on the Add to Folder link to the right in the Tools section.
  • After you're finished adding items to the folder, click on the Folder link at the top of the page.
  • Mark the items you'd like to export (using the checkboxes to the left), and then click on the Export icon to the right.
  • Make sure Direct Export in RIS Format (e.g. CITAVI, EasyBib, EndNote, ProCite, Reference Manager, Zotero) is selected.

  • Click the Save button.
  • Find the .ris file on your computer, and click on it to open. It should appear in your EndNote library.
