Searching Online Resources

Some databases cannot connect directly to Citavi for legal or technical reasons. However, most of these allow you to export your results directly to a reference management program. The name of the feature varies by database: Save to reference software, Export to citation manager, Download selected citations, Import to EndNote, etc. In all of these cases, you can export your search results into Citavi.

Citavi includes import filters for standard formats — RIS, BibTeX, and ENW (EndNote Tagged) — as well as custom import filters tailored to many individual online resources.
