However, this resource is useful for verifying known citations of older articles or authors.
IIMP is compatible with EndNote, ProCite, Reference Manager and RefWorks. Users can export citations into these management tools from the 'selected records' page (accessible by following the ?selected records? link) and can also use them to search IIMP via Z39.50.
