Import 8: I have a list of references in a document that was not created using EndNote. Can I import these into EndNote?

Answer: Unfortunately, EndNote was not designed to import information in a bibliography format. EndNote can import text files that are in a tagged data format, as well as tab-delimited files that are in the exact right format.

Some customers have had success at converting an existing text file into a tagged data file that can be imported into EndNote, however the process is difficult and may take more time than finding another source for the references, or even copying and pasting the text into new references by hand. More information on preparing text files for importing can be found in chapter 16 of the EndNote manual.
