Top Law Schools

Not sure where to put this so its going here unless a mod wants to move it. I've searched high and low and cannot seem to figure out if Endnote is compatible with legal citations. My brother graduated from law school a few years ago and struggled all the time with the fabled "blue book" citations formatting. Does anyone know if Endnote is compatible? Saves my life currently, and I hope to be able to use it in my newly chosen profession.

Thoughts?

I researched this (briefly) on the Endnote forums. There is a template, but I did not try it so I don't know how useful it is.

Nope. I've seen a template, but it was only good for the easiest bits of the Bluebook that anyone can remember.

There's a CSL style for blue book, so if you use something like Mendeley (disclaimer: I work for them) you should be able to generate blue book cites automatically. Shoot me an email if you need help getting started.

Not responsive to your question, but I use endnote offline at work regularly to keep track of documents in a case. A tremendous program.
