Importing publications into PubLists

With REF dry-run coming up, there have been lots of queries about using the file importer in PubLists to complete publications lists with items not collected automatically.  This should be simple and easy, once you have the right information.

  • The importer is under the 'my elements' tab 
  • Export the file from your reference software in RIS or BibTex format
  • Duplicates should be identified by the importer
  • Check your publications list afterwards to make sure everything has been imported correctly

Imported references show up as manual publications in PubLists and are therefore automatically approved.  They will, however, be flagged as 'unverified' until a member of the PubLists team has checked them for accuracy and completeness.

There is a guide under the help link in PubLists which shows you how to import and export in PubLists, for more information or further help email publists@qmul.ac.uk
