Filters allow you to download search results from a database into EndNote. Filters convert the fields in a catalogue or database record into a form that can be recognised by the EndNote software. 

EndNote comes preloaded with many filters, and additional filters can be downloaded from the EndNote website.

ProCite RIS filter to import from OneSearch

Currently, the RIS File is not formatting correctly. This is issue is being looked at by OneSearch technicians. In the meantime, please use the ProCite RIS filter that is preloaded in EndNote.

1. Conduct your search.
2. Save your results in the format specified for the filter.
3. Save the results to a disk or a place on your hard drive where you can find them easily again.
4. Open EndNote and your chosen library.
5. Select File and then Import.
6. Browse to your search results using the Choose file button.
7. Find the appropriate filter using the pulldown menu in the Import option window.
8. Click on Import.
