Saving the Clipboard to your user profile
From a headline list or full item page, click on the Clipboard link. On both the headline list page and the full item page, this icon is located under the bibliographic information.
Each headline list or full item page contains the total number
of items in your Clipboard, if greater than zero, at the upper left under the
MathSciNet banner.
Example: View clipboard: 12 items
The number of items in the Clipboard is incremented each time a subsequent addition is made.
The clipboard will help you avoid adding duplicate citations. If you attempt to add an item that already exists in your clipboard, the item will not be added to the clipboard.
The items in the Clipboard are presented in the following order: first the unauthored items, in order of publication date, then the authored items in alphabetical order by first author and, within a given author's publications, in publication date order.
In the Clipboard, you can view all the current citations in your Clipboard as a numbered list in HTML. You may also view the list in 4 different text formats, suitable for saving to your local system, without any HTML encoding:
Choose one of these 4 formats from the pull-down menu and click SaveClip. Use your browser's Save function to save to your system.
