# 2.2. Ways Importing and Creating Research Outputs

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">After checking your Research output and ensuring that the publication does not exist in Pure, you have **three options** to import a publication **immediately:**</span>

 **1.** [ **Import from online source**](https://wiki.pmu.ac.at/books/manual-for-researchers/page/23-import-from-online-source)

Publications published in PubMed, Web of Science or ORCID.

  
**2.** [ **Import from file**](https://wiki.pmu.ac.at/books/manual-for-researchers/page/24-import-from-file)

Import from RIS, BibTex, and CERIF files.

  
**3.** [ **Create from template**](https://wiki.pmu.ac.at/books/manual-for-researchers/page/25-create-from-template)

For publications that have not been published in PubMed or Web of Science, as well as for books and book chapters.

Uploading original content may potentially violate Open Access guidelines; therefore, it is not recommended. Alternatively, you can **register a DOI or other link** to your publication in the editor window.</span></p>
