 #### Q: How do I include an "Accessed on", "Visited on", "Date last Accessed" or "Last visited" note for urls?
 The bibliography is formatted by the `natbib` package that does not support the `urldate` field in `.bib` files.
 As a work around, add a `note={Accessed on 2020-01-01}` to the relevant bib entry.

+### For preparing a single document - Thesis, Dissertation, Final project report
+Since you will only need this template once, go to the [Releases page](https://git.soton.ac.uk/el7g15/uos-latex-template/-/releases) and download the relevant quickstart package. Unzip and start editing the `Thesis.tex`,`Progress.tex`,`GDP.tex` file as appropriate for the report you are doing. This should compile straight away from an editor like TeXstudio.

+Assuming you will use the template more than once, this is definitely the preferred option.

+Download the `Source Code` from the [Releases page](https://git.soton.ac.uk/el7g15/uos-latex-template/-/releases) and extract it to the `{TEXMF}` folder (see below).
+#### Your `{TEXMF}` root subdirectory
 For Tex Live: This whole folder can be moved into the `~/texmf` directory to begin using the class files.
 
 For MikTeX: It is platform dependent, See `UserInstall` from (https://miktex.org/kb/texmf-roots).
 You may need to register your directories: https://docs.miktex.org/manual/localadditions.html.
 You will need to update the filename database (FNDB) (MiKTeX Console -> Tasks ->Refresh file name database), see https://docs.miktex.org/manual/configuring.html#fndbupdate. You can do this in the command line with the `initexmf -u` command.
