Attention Endnote/Office 2016 users

Currently EndNote is not supported by Microsoft 2016, so do not install Office 2016 if you intend on using EndNote.

EndNote has informed us that:

"Currently, no version of EndNote is compatible to be used with Word 2016. This is primarily because EndNote was developed much before the release of Word 2016. Our Development team is working towards developing a patch update to address this issue. We haven’t got a formal confirmation from our developers’ team about the release date of this patch file."

EndNote have provided a workaround option (linked below) but please be advised that library staff cannot assist you further if you decide to proceed with Office 2016 and EndNote. If you have any queries about these options you must contact EndNote technical support directly. 

EndNote Support Links:

As a workaround; for EndNote Online you can use Format Paper to format your references. For more information, please refer to this link:http://www.myendnoteweb.com/help/en_us/ENW/hs_formatpaper.htm
