Managing search results
Search results can be exported from all major databases. Exporting results is a key step in managing your results and preparing for later stages of your research, such as screening and writing.
Choosing a file format
Most databases will let you export results in a variety of file formats. Before selecting a file format consider the following
- Reference Management – be sure to export your results in a format compatible with your preferred reference manager
- Next steps in your research – to screen your results in Covidence you will need to import them as either an Endnote XML file or RIS text file
How to export
