Q. Is it possible to save references found on the Web directly to EndNote?

Yes, you can save references from the Web directly into EndNote Desktop and EndNote Online.

The Capture tool scans the bibliographic information presented on a web page and creates a reference that you can save to a new or existing group. If no group is specified, the reference is saved to Unfiled.

To install the Capture browser extension:

1. Login to your EndNote Online account or register for a new one
2. Click on "Downloads" located on the EndNote Ribbon
3. Drag and drop the "Capture Reference" button to your Bookmarks Bar or right-click on it and select "Add to Favorites" or "Bookmark This Link"

To capture a reference:

1. Navigate to a web page that presents bibliographic data (refer to the list of Capture Compatible Sources)
2. Click the "Capture Reference" bookmarklet button
3. Complete or modify any of the reference fields (see image below)
4. Click the "Save To" button and select either my.endnote.com to save the reference to your EndNote Online library or EndNote to save it to your library in EndNote desktop
