Instructions for exporting citations from Web of Knowledge databases to EndNote


A sample search using Arts and Humanities Citation Index gives an overview of how to export from most Web of Knowledge databases to EndNote.


  1. Conduct your search.

  2. Check the boxes for citations you wish to export then, from above, click EndNote.

  3. webofknowledge1b

  4. The export process will likely begin automatically, but if it doesn't, click Export in the Processing Records screen.

  5. webofknowledge2b



    Some browsers may ask you to choose a helper application.

    - Check Open with then click Browse.

    - This will open a second box (the Choose Helper Application box). Select EndNote.

    - Click OK to both boxes when finished.

    - You can also check Do this automatically for files like this from now on, to save time in the future.

    If citations fail to export, also check for pop-up blockers (which may appear as a banner notice along the top or bottom of your screen). Citation also will not export if you have a reference open in EndNote. (To be sure you do not have a reference open, in EndNote, click on All References.)
