Importing references from 2010 or later

Please note, when importing references from 2010 or later from databases and/or other electronic resources you may find that the date is not brought across correctly and instead the Year field in the record remains blank.

If this happens, please either add the year manually or see this webpage for further information:

This problem should be rectified when ISS and the University Library upgrade to the latest version of EndNote in the future so please bear with us whilst we work on this.
