Endnote Fusion now live!
RefWorks has now officially changed its name to Endnote Fusion (not to be confused with Endnote Web, which is another reference management system altogether - not confusing at all 🤷‍♀️)

The URL has not changed and you should be able to login as usual with your UoB account and see any references you had saved before the change. If you do have any problems with any ofit please do report it to us via SID.

"At home, I like to sew because every stitch lets me make something fabulous… and because if there’s going to be a full-blown fabric uprising, I’d rather face it under my sewing machine—preferably while negotiating with their revolutionary leader, Sir StitchesaLot, Commander of the Unravelling Brigade.”

“I like to party. And by ‘party’ I mean stay home and sew!”🥳🤘🏾🧵🪡
