Step 2: Run the Import

Once you're logged into BIBID, you will see the start screen that summarises the import process. This process will take some considerable time depending on the number of records you have in your BIBID database, the specification of the PC you're using & your network conditions.

Please ensure that if you're using a laptop it has sufficient battery or is using AC power.
