BibTeX Feature
BibTeX Overview There is a good chance that citations of your publications are already stored in another software system such as a reference manager or database for example, EndNote, Google Scholar, Mendeley, RefWorks, Scopus, Web of Science or Zotero. Those software systems enable you to pick records and then export them into a BibTeX file. This feature enables you to upload that BibTeX file so that you do not need to rekey those citations. Below you will find details on how to export publication information from a few common software systems into a BibTeX file. What is BibTeX? How to Export Publications to a BibTeX File? How to use the feature Step1: Upload a File Step 2: Handle Duplicates Step 3: Pick Collaborators Step 4: Review Records and Import Step 5: Import Complete
WHAT IS BIBTEX? BibTeX is the most broadly supported standardized way to structure publication citations in a file. This makes it easy to move citations between two software applications. You export citations from one software application into a BibTeX file and then import that file into another software application. In this case, you are exporting from another software application and importing into Activity Insight. Tidbit #1: BibTeX is a very proven file format, as it was created more than 20 years ago, in 1985! Of course, it has evolved over the years. Tidbit #2: You can open a BibTeX file with any common text editor, including Microsoft Word, TextEdit or Notepad. Here's an example of a BibTeX file that you can open. You will see that it is, perhaps surprisingly, straightforward to read.
How To Export Publications To A BibTeX File?
EXPORTING BIBTEX FROM GOOGLE SCHOLAR While it is possible to export a specific citation within your Google scholar search results to BibTeX, the intention is that one would first aggregate his or her citations via Google Scholar Citations prior to generating the BibTeX file for import into Activity Insight. 1.Navigate to Google Scholar. 2.Select My Citations. 3.If you are not yet logged in, enter your credentials to sign in. Upon signing in you should land on your profile page where you will see a list of your "articles." 4.If you would like to export only select articles to your BibTeX file, choose these from your profile. If you would like to export all of your articles, simply leave things as they are. 5.In the Actions drop-down list choose to Export your articles. 6.On the Export Articles page, ensure that the File Format selected is BibTeX. Then select to export either the selected articles or all articles, depending on your need. 7.Save the export file. For more information please see the Google Scholar help guide.

As you can see from the previous screenshot, 10 potential duplicates were found. For each of the potentially duplicate records, you must now pick Skip as selecting "import" will create another record and not overwrite the existing record. As the existing records have certain fields modified by the school and APO it is a best practice not to import the duplicate records. You can limit the records that are displayed to all records or only those that still need review using the drop-down menu at the bottom. Once you have indicated whether each record is or is not a duplicate, a Continue button will appear as you see below.

Step 3: Pick Collaborators We now move on to link the names from the file to the user accounts in Activity Insight. Here, a list of the names of people that are in all of the records from the file are displayed. 2 names matched the users that are in the system according to the screenshot below.

Activity Insight presents a confirmation box to ensure you wish to proceed. Press Import Records to continue. Import Complete: The records are loaded into Activity Insight immediately and you will see a notification that the records are successfully imported!
BibTeX Import Limitations Primarily the fields center around the publication and not around the author in a BibTeX file. The following information is generally not found in a BibTeX file: Peer Reviewed/Refereed information Permanent Chronological Number Number of Citations Full Text (pdf document). Web link is populated if the BibTeX file has it. Percent and role of contribution Published publications only are included in the BibTeX file. Sometimes a BibTeX file may have some information merged in one field. eg: Publisher Name, City, Address, Country.
