4. Create a Batch Import File

Biblio content can also be created through a batch import. Notice that whenever you open a .ris file it starts with a TY and ends with an ER — then an empty line. To prepare a batch import document, copy the content of one .ris file into another, making sure it follows the format of each entry beginning with a TY, ending with an ER —, and separated from the next entry with an empty line.
