MS Word and citation management

Thanks to Paul Pival the Distant Librarian, I have found out that the latest version of MS Word comes with built-in citation management.

At MPOW we are still using MS Office 2003, but I'm looking forward to seeing this new version.
The Microsoft Office Word Team has blogged about this feature, so you may as well get the details from the experts.

Hi Peta,
This looked good so I followed your link to the Microsoft blog. Looking at the comments it appears that they forgot to provide for easily getting the citations into the database in the first place :( I guess we will be staying with recommending Endnote for the time being.

My guess is that this is currently aimed at your high school student or occasional writer outside of academia..
Future development will surely see some kind of integration with Academic Live to capture citations - if not it seems that these MS teams might not be talking to each other.
