漫游数据库简介
EndNote 在 Word 中插入文献都是保存为域代码的形式。域代码中包含文献的大多数据信息，也包含漫游数据库中引用的文献。
当利用 EndNote 第一次格式化引文时，EndNote 会查找本地数据库的相应的文献。如果再次格式化文献，同样 EndNote 也会在本地数据库中查找相应的文献，但是如果本地数据库不可用或者打不开，EndNote 会使用漫游数据库中的信息。
漫游数据库一般包含文献除了注释，摘要和图表之外所有信息，因此可以利用漫游数据库和同事分享文章，这样同事就不需要打开相应的数据库就可以查看文件。换句话说，如果没有漫游数据库，在其他电脑上打开文章，可能会出现错误，EndNote 找不引文和参考文献。
漫游数据库只是针对格式化的引文才起作用，如果是未格式化引文，需要本地数据库的支持才能格式化文章。
导出漫游数据库
有时候我们需要导出漫游数据库，导出漫游数据库的方法如下。
1. 打开 Word 文件
2. 在 Word 的 EndNote 工具栏，依次打开 Export to Endnote >> Export Traveling Library；
或者在 EndNote 中依次打开 Tools >> Cite While You Write >> Import Traveling Library。注意第二种方法前提是要利用 EndNote 要先格式化一下文章才可以。
3. 在新的对话框中可以选择
- An existing EndNote library：导入到一个现有的数据库中
- A new EndNote library：导出文献为一个新的数据库
漫游数据库用处
漫游数据库的用处可以分为两种，最重要的是保留了文献的大多数据信息，这样在其他电脑上不用打开 EndNote 数据库就可以查看引文和参考文献。
漫游数据库另外一个重要用处是可以分享引文和参考文献。比如现在别人要检查我的文章，要求把参考的文献进行单独提交，此时可以利用导出漫游数据库的功能，把该文章所有引用的文献导出为一个新的数据库，提交给别人。
注意此时导出时选择「A new EndNote library」。

The traveling library
Working on a document using the Traveling Library
Formatted citations in a document include invisible field codes needed to form the in-text citation and corresponding reference entry. In the document these codes collectively form the document’s “Traveling Library”. The Travelling Library is a tool for author collaboration.
An author can send a collaborator a copy of a document which contains formatted citations from their library. The collaborating author can work on the document and add citations from their own library, and the reference list will update accordingly. Neither author requires access to each other’s library, as the document’s Traveling Library contains all the necessary information.
The document citations must remain formatted, as unformatting them will delete the field codes.
It is highly recommended that you should only collaborate on a document if you are familiar with EndNote and how it works with Word.
One collaborator should be responsible for creating the final document and reference list. They should add the traveling library to their existing library, as explained below. The document can then be safely unformatted if necessary.
Important:
- Each time a document is to be shared make sure that a back up copy is created prior to sharing.
- Before cutting and pasting text within a document that contains formatted citations, click Convert to Unformatted Citations (in the Convert Citations and Bibliography menu). This will help avoid corruption of the document. To reformat the document, click Update Citations and Bibliography.
Adding a Traveling Library to your own library
Sometimes you may want to add traveling library references from a collaborator’s document to your own EndNote library. For example, you may want to use these references in another document.
In the Word EndNote toolbar, click Export to EndNote > Export to Traveling Library, and choose a new or existing target library. Each record will be assigned a new record number- In the document click Update Citations and Bibliography to incorporate these changes.
===========================
1保证要用的library打开，且来所有被引源用的参考文献百均存在
2 在word里EndNote选项度→Biliography→Convert to Unformatted Citations
3 Update Citations and Bibliographies
即可把travelling library的文献转换为从打道开的library里引用
===========================
How did we solve this one?
Well, first we had to break free of
the travelling library. We did this by placing our cursor at the top of
the first page of the document. We then moved the "ENDNOTE X3" tab of
Word 2007. We clicked on "Convert Citations and Bibliographies" (on the
"Bibliography" section of the tab) which produces a drop down menu. From
the drop down menu, we chose "Convert to Unformatted Citations." This
turns all the citations into the temporary Endnote references.
THEN we made sure the corresponding Endnote library was open and active.
THEN we made sure the correct output style was selected.
THEN we chose "Update Citations and Bibliographies" (on the "Bibliography" section of the tab).
Voila!
===========================
The take away message:
If you are working on a document, always have your Endnote library open.
Let
Endnote work for you. Based on the output style you select, it will
handle the issue of that prolific author whose multiple works you want
to cite.
