Connection files allow EndNote to search and import references from databases. Connection files only work with databases that support the z39.50 protocol (typically library catalogs, and free databases like PubMed). There may be additional restrictions that limit the libraries' ability to support this type of access. EndNote users can get new and updated filters at the EndNote Technical Support pages. To download connection files: Click on the link for the file. Save the file into your Connections folder in your EndNote directory (found on your C:\ drive or in your C:\Program Files folder). Cambridge Scientific Abstracts: When using a connection file to access a Cambridge database(eg. Aerospace and High Technology, ARTbibliographies, Linguistics and Language Behavior, Oceanic Abstracts, Sociological, Worldwide Political Science) you are prompted for a user ID and password. Use your MIT web certificate to obtain the necessary user ID and password. OCLC WorldCat: When using a connection file to access WorldCat you are prompted for a user ID and password. Use your MIT web certificate to obtain the necessary user ID and password. ProQuest Research Library: You will need to use your MIT web certificate to access this file. This connection file will connect you to the entire ProQuest Research Library. You can not limit to one database (example: ABI Inform). Proquest connection for MIT Export: Download records from a library-supported database directly into your EndNote database. Import filters are the files used by EndNote to decipher information that has been downloaded from a bibliographic database. You can customize any of these import filters or create your own. EndNote users can get new and updated filters at the EndNote Technical Support pages.
