1. Do your search in PubMed and select the citations you wish to save.
2. Next to the Display button, select MEDLINE as the citation format.
3. Click on the "Send To" drop down menu and choose "File".
4. Save the file as a text file. Note where you save it.

At a later time when you are at the computer with EndNote on it:

1. Open EndNote and select the your library.
2. Go to "File" menu and and click "Import".
3. At the "Import Data File" option, click "Choose". Navigate to the text file you saved from PubMed. Select that file.
4. At "Import Option", select the correct database style filter. In this case, select PUBMED(NLM).
5. At the "Duplicates" prompt, you may select to delete duplicates, which will automatically discard any citations that match existing citations in your EndNote library.
6. When you are done, click "Import". Your citations will be imported to your EndNote library.
