Import references from any source—even if its export format isn’t listed among our supported formats (RIS files often work anyway). You just need to prepare a table according to our template, save it as a CSV file, and upload it.

Download our template with column headers that MemOwl can read:

So after uploading this reference in csv format:

it is displayed in RefereNTKa like this:

PS: It is good idea to delete the second row from the template as it is just a small hint what the column should be about,

<aside> 💡 Each column must have the exact name as listed (case insensitive) below, but does not have to be in the exact order, some columns can be missing. If there is a column with unknown header name, it would be skipped without causing any trouble.
