EndNote Export

We have set up a first version of an EndNote export filter which you can access by putting /endnote in the URL, i.e. for /tag/web you get the EndNote output on /endnote/tag/web. There is also an EndNote button in the footer of pages which support EndNote export.

Note that since we're more into BibTeX we have little experience with EndNote and therefore we used the EndNote User's Guide (pages 172-175) to relate BibTeX fields to EndNote fields. There were several BibTeX fields for which we did not find a corresponding EndNote field. In the following tables you can see the mapping. If you have suggestions to improve EndNote output, let us know.

  1. Please note that this bibliography format was not invented by Endnote but by Mike E. Lesk c. 1978 for his bibliographic utility named `refer' which was part of the troff suite. You will find it today still supported by grefer which is part of the GNU groff text processing suite.

  2. Some BibTeX styles offer an ISBN and an ISSN field. Maybe it would be interesting having them here too. At least in some circumstances it is much easier to cut and paste such an external key than to search fo r an (maybe not so common) juornal by name.

  3. Hello,
    regarding addition features like ISSN and ISBN number for bibtex entries, you can use the "misc" field. This field offers you to add manually various bibtex characteristics like ISSN, ISBN and so on.

  4. Experimenting on an endnote-export I found out, that some tags are not the same as in 'refer'.
    i.e.:
    1) %J for journal is only recognized when itÄs tagged as %B
    2) %0 Journal Article is recognized as "Ancient Text" in EndNote X (Google scholar has the same problem)
    3) %[ (access date) is not recognized at all...
    I didn't find out the recognized tags (nor did I check all tags of refer), but it differs: see also: here

  5. important: I mentioned in the last posting: %B instead of %J. this is dangerous (even if it works with endnote X), because %B can mean something else and this would be a mistake in 'refer'-format

  6. Hi anonym,

    thanks for you advice but we don't know what you mean exactly. It would be nice if you could send us an email with further details to webmaster@bibsonomy.org.

    Thanks
