How do I find the fulltext to my references in EndNote automatically?

To be able to use the function Find Full Text in EndNote you need to type in the link to the KI server for journals.

Find Full Text in EndNote means that you automatically can locate and download articles in fulltext (PDF) to your references in your EndNote Library. The program is using several sources, DOI (Digital Object Identifier), PubMed LinkOut, and ISI Web of Knowledge. If you want to reach articles from journals that require subscriptions you need to be connected to the KI network. If you are outside the KI network you only have access to free journals. A proxy connection will not solve the problem; you need a VPN solution to make the Find Full Text in EndNote work optimally. Read more about VPN at KI.
