 As you're probably aware, the University is looking for a successor to Procite.  As
Procite is no longer being developed, we are looking at replacement products, although
Procite will continue to be supported for a year or so.

 An IS working group has shortlisted Reference Manager, EndNote, WriteNote and RefWorks
for further evaluation., and demonstrations of the first 3 from our supplier will take
place on Wednesday 7 December from 2 - 5 p.m. in the Library Seminar Room. 

 There will be demo systems to test and this is an opportunity for departmental staff
and/or students to have input into the choice of the next system.  Please let me know if
you would like to attend - even for part of the session.
