Exporting records

FSTA Direct supports exporting records in a variety of views and formats. Records can be saved to a local disk drive or they can be sent to your or a contact's email address.

Exporting records is available from the Search results page. Move the mouse pointer to the word Export in the light-blue menu bar and click on one of the presented options:

Export all - exports all the records from the current search
Export selected - exports all the currently selected records
Export page - exports all the records on the current page

A window appears offering formatting and distribution options

Available formats are plain, HTML, XML, and the .ris format used by EndNote, Reference Manager, and Procite bibliographic management software packages. Other bibliographic management software packages may be compatible with this format as well. Click on Save to save records to a local disk drive in the current view format.

Search results may be emailed by checking the 'Send to email' box. By default the user account email will be offered, but this can be edited to any other valid email address. Click on Send to send the email using the current view format.

Please refer to your user agreement for terms and conditions regarding the storage of saved records.
