Import from databases

'Dump files'

With practically all retrieval systems used to access literature databases it is possible to download references containing user-specified information. The resulting files is sometimes called a dump file.

Each dump file requires special handling by GetARef.

Free developlement of new import routines

DatAid offers to develop new import routines for file formats that can be downloaded from commercially or available databases. This is done for free but in collaboration with the user that first expresses the need of the import routine.

Updated import routines is available for free via GetARef's Web site.
