How many search results can I export from Ovid?


To ensure the integrity of data exports from Ovid, we limit exports to 2000 records at a time. If you need to export more than 2000 records, you can do so in batches:

  1. Use the 'Range' field (beneath the Ovid search box) to enter '1-2000'.
  2. Click 'Export' and select your preferred export options for 'Format' and 'Fields'.
  3. Click 'Export'.
  4. Repeat with your next batch, entering '2001-4000' in the 'Range' field. If you have fewer than 4000 results, enter the number of results as the second part of your range.
  5. Repeat until you have exported all results and import to your reference manager.

If you experience any dropped or missing results, try using a small number of records in each batch.
