| EW: 2; 3; 4-5: cannot modify them directly: must do it within EndNote desktop and the Administrator can upload them; 7: actually a "Capture" feature does exist, as a plug-in for browsers' toolbar, but the results were extremely poor (only a couple of fields captured in a cluttered way) |
RW:
* to create a new filter you must ask and make a suggestion to the producer |
Pr: 1 copy and drag-and-drop; 2, 3, 4, requires separate application program: BiblioLink; 5, 6, 7 |
En: 1 copy and drag-and-drop 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 yes Windows (Scholar Google included) (for Mac see Other features); 9 can import only from its own EndNote's XML proprietary format
|
RM: 1, 2, 3, 4 modify and save under different name 5 7 9 can import only from RM and EndNote XML proprietary format
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
B - Can import delimited/tabbed stuctured input ASCII text file[more specific features that could be taken into account: fixed/variable number of fields; fixed/variable fields position in different RTs; RT can be changed; multiple value fields allowed (e.g. more names in author field ...); fields contents can also spread over different lines; can define field separator; can replace delimiter if embedded in field; can define end of record] |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| EW: tab delimited, must follow special instructions given by the help | RW: no | Pr: yes
fixed or variable number of fields ( RT; RN; plus all 45 fields or only workform related); fixed position of fields;RT cannot be changed, must be present as the first field or last used in data entry be assumed by default; multiple value fields allowed, if separated by // / or ; in name field; fields content can spread over more than one line; can define field separator; can replace delimiter if embedded in field contents; can define end-of-record |
En: yes
tabbed where number of fields and their position can vary: Tab delimited: special first line for reference type and second with fields names labels according to the receiving EndNote RT; no fixed position required; recognizes multiple authors; RT can be changed and multiple value fields are allowed |
RM: yes
must use only one destination field defined as "Source" with subfields and its parsing option; number and position of fields can vary according to the specified RT; more than one RT can be defined; multiple value fields allowed; fields content can spread over more than one line; can define field separator; can replace delimiter if embedded in field contents; can define end-of-record |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
C - Can import alpha/numeric data from a spreadsheet |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| EW: tab delimited, see above | RW: it can import from MS Excel via data manipulation : data has to be transformed into RW native tagged format | Pr: yes as long as it is a comma/tab delimeted structured file | En: yes as long as it is a tab delimited or tagged structured file, see above 2 | RM: yes, see above delimited/tabbed | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
D - Can import ISO 2709 format |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| EW: no | RW: no | Pr: no | En: no | RM: no | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
E - Can import MARC format file |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| EW: yes, via Z39.50 from many library catalogs servers (a few filters | RW: yes (pre-defined filters for: DANMARC, MARC21, UNIMARC); filters are also available to import via Z39.50 from MARC records servers such as library catalogs | Pr: one has to create its own filter for a tagged MARC format (without leader and directory and each field on a different line), alternatively, download records through Z39.50 online connection and MARC tagged modifiable filters (limited options to handle subfields in names) | En: one has to create its own filter for a tagged MARC format (without leader and directory, each field on a different line), then a series of specific options for handling MARC tagged records is provided (e.g. subfields to a limited extent ...); alternatively download records through Z39.50 online connection and tagged MARC filters, already made and modifiable (limited options to handle subfields in names) |
RM: filters for tagged MARC records are available -others can be created, e.g. for UNIMARC as well- to download and import records through Z39.50 online connection
it is really difficult to deal with embedded subfields codes |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
F - Custom reformatting of tagged structured input ASCII text files:
|
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| EW: filters as offered are canned and certainly perform some of these tasks; to modify them must do it within EndNote desktop and the EW Administrator can upload them;
as per what EndNote desktop can do with filters see here En |
RW: filters are canned and users do not have access to them;
they clearly perform some of these tasks out of user's control |
Pr: 1 only: "when using workform [X], do not transfer field(s) ..." (field mapping depending on RT); 2; 3; 4; 5; 7; 8; 9 | En: 2; 3; 4; 5; 6 no ; 7; 8 (any field); 9 only omitting strings for each single field | RM: 1 to replace text or not; 2; 3; 4; 5 (seven predefined patterns: author, periodical, date etc.: Source field lets indicate delimiters, also commas and tabs); 6 (four keywords + date stamping --settings are not at the filter level but in the import window); 7; 8 (also Casing Term Dictionary); 9; also "Periodical term Dictionary" for terms without periods in abbreviated titles that are not abbreviated words | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
G - Import through embedded Z39.50 online connection
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| EW: yes, but cannot modify them directly: must do it within EndNote desktop and the Administrator can upload them | RW: yes, can import data, users can create basic connection files;
1: no, you cannot modify filters: make suggestions to the producer to do it |
Pr: yes (via incorporated subset of BookWhere® client); 1: yes | En: yes (via incorporated proprietary toolkit, Yaz client ® based);
1: yes |
RM: yes (via incorporated subset of BookWhere® client);
1 yes |

I - Supplied import filters |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| EW: 671 | RW: ca 1090 shipped (cannot create more, see above) | Pr: hundreds + others definable via Biblio-Link + direct export from several databases | En: > 630 + can define others with no limitations: each is a separate file emedding a data conversion table | RM: some 430 shipped (can create more with no limitations, via IFE Import Field Editor) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
