EndNote
One way to connect to a database that you want to search from within EndNote is by using a connection file. This allows you to construct a simple search from within EndNote and to connect to the database using Z39.50.

To do this, in EndNote 6-X go to the Tools menu and choose Connect; slide over the Connect command to get the window entitled Choose A Connection File. (Note: Versions of EndNote prior to 6 have the Connect command available from the File menu.) The Find button on the left-hand side about two-thirds of the way down the window will narrow your options. NOTE: HLAS is listed under Library of Congress.
