New EndNote Compatible With OpenOffice.org Writer

The Healthcare and Science business of Thomson Reuters (www.thomsonreuters.com) announced compatibility between EndNote-the bibliographic management software used by millions of researchers, librarians, and students-and OpenOffice.org Writer. The new EndNote X3 for Windows, which will be released in June, introduces the patent-pending Cite While You Write technology to OpenOffice.org Writer, an open source word processor popular among academics.

OpenOffice.org Writer support in EndNote X3 enables users to format in-text citations and the bibliography instantly as required by publishers. Users can search EndNote libraries within OpenOffice.org Writer and select references to cite. The OpenOffice.org Writer formats a paper automatically upon inserting an EndNote citation and can revise an entire paper using more than 3,300 different styles with no additional typing required.

The EndNote list price is $299.95 (special upgrade prices are available). Students in North America can purchase EndNote for $115.95 with a valid student ID. EndNote is available from Thomson Reuters, college and university bookstores, and authorized resellers worldwide. For more information about EndNote visit www.endnote.com.

The OpenOffice.org community is an international team of volunteer and sponsored contributors who develop, translate, support, and promote the leading open source office productivity suite, OpenOffice.org. OpenOffice.org's leading-edge software technology (UNO) is also available for developers, systems integrators, etc., to use in OpenOffice.org extensions or in their own applications.
