I wish to start a library on Mendeley on the Web. There are no PDF files involved; I just want to use Mendeley (Web) to organize citations. I have the "Post to Mendeley" bookmarklet, or whatever it is called, installed in my IE9 browser, so for any individual article I can get it into the Mendeley Web system by visiting the article on the web and letting the bookmarklet do its thing. So far, so good. However, I want to start my library off with 2040 entries obtained from another system. I want the basic bibliographical information for those articles to be whatever Mendeley says it is, so I do not want to download a BibTeX file from the other system and then upload that into Mendeley. Rather I just want to feed a list of 2040 URLs (and they may be DOI links) into Mendeley and let Mendeley obtain the bibliographical information. The articles are from the physical and chemical sciences, generally from major journals published by, for example, AIP, IOP, APS or EPS. Is this a reasonable wish and can it be accommodated?
