    How do I configure a connection to Alma in EndNote?

    • Product: Alma

    How do I configure EndNote to search our catalog via Z39.50?

    What options do I fill in for the EndNote connection?

    Answer

    Assuming you have already configured and activated the Z39.50 integration profile, use these settings:

    Server Address: [environment].alma.exlibrisgroup.com   where [environment] is in the form EUXX, NAXX, or AP01
    Database: Library Catalog (or whatever name you have for it--this just displays in EndNote)
    Database Name: [INSTITUTION_CODE]    where [INSTITUTION_CODE] is in the form XXCODE_INST
    Element Set: F
    Port ID: 1921
    Record Syntax: MARC21
    Text: UTF-8

    If you configured the Z39.50 service to require a User Name and/or Password, add those to the EndNote connection as well (this is rare).
