Google Scholar and EndNote

I just read in the Google Librarian's newsletter that you can import citations to EndNote from Google Scholar.

In Google Scholar, click on the Scholar Preferences link.

In the "Bibliography Manager" section at the bottom, click the button next to "Show link to import citations into" and choose Endnote as the format. You can also import to RefWorks and some other bibliographic managers.

Click the Save Preferences button

Now when you do a Google Scholar search, there will be a link at the bottom of each citation that says "Import into EndNote."
