EndNote 2025

Add references to your library

There are four ways to add references to your EndNote library.

Select the method you need from the list:

  1. Direct export from databases - the easiest way to export references from a database into your EndNote library.
  2. Importing text files from databases. Recommended for large sets of references and when direct import-option is not available. You will need to import these references using an import filter.
  3. How to use Import Filters - Choose the right import option to import references in Endnote
  4. Add references manually - use when the source is only available in print or online export is unavailable, such as websites, reports.
  5. Searching and importing in EndNote Search
