Smithsonian staff and affiliates can submit data to the Smithsonian Research Bibliography in one of several ways:
- Staff currently using EndNote, Pro-Cite, Reference Manager, RefWorks or Zotero can export publication data in RIS format and email it to the Information Services Librarian (contact information is below). Instruction and advice on using these packages or how to export/submit the data can be obtained by contacting hutchinsona@si.edu.
- Remember that citations can often be exported directly from publisher websites and/or databases. Please choose RIS format or a format compatible with one of the software packages listed above.
- Users can input the data directly using a web form provided here. Choose the type of publication listed and complete the form which is presented.
Errors or corrections should be brought to the attention of the Information Services Librarian
IMPORTANT: When exporting information from EndNote or other bibliographic software, please remember to include the author(s) staff category, museum/unit and department. This information should be entered into the keyword or descriptor field.
