The traveling library (TL) hasn't been of much use to me. For me it has
been impossible to extract it from a Word file that I received, maybe
because I didn't have the database it was derived from. Then there is
the duplicates problem. I just worked on a colleague's manuscript (by
email), and exported the TL from the manuscript where I had generated
the reference list (RM11, patched).
The 41 references in the MS resulted in 62 entries in the database, some
repeated 4 times. I haven't heard from my colleague whether she could
import it into her EndNote, and I didn't look at it to cull the dupes
from it.
It is one of the many deficiencies In RM10 and its successors that
appear to me (not a programmer) easy to fix, but which ISI is failing to
address.
