Using Terms For Searches

To ensure that you are searching for the correct terms, you can use the term lists with EndNote’s Search command. Terms can be entered in the fields on the Advanced Search panel just as they are entered into references.

  1. Navigate to the Advanced Search panel, select the field you want to search, and click in the field as though to enter data in it.
  2. From the Library menu, select Open Term Lists, and then select a list. Or, in an Author, Journal, or Keywords field, press Ctrl+1 to display the appropriate list. (If you create a custom term list, the Ctrl+1 command will also work with any field you link to your custom term list.)
  3. Select a term and click Insert Term, or double-click on a term, to insert it into the Search field.
  4. Click Search to search for your references.
