Also there are many references. I hold all my references and comments on them in Bookends. I regret not looking at lyx/latex and using them much earlier so I am looking for an easy way to migrate this info into Lyx and I am also looking for a Thesis  template. I have dowloaded and installed Lyx on my Macbook Pro (Mavericks) and been thro the intro etc. I am trying to minimise the effort in migration to Lyx so any comments and advice is most welcome.

Here is a page with thesis templates for LyX

If your university has a latex template, you can usually adapt that to LyX with some combination of using the Document->Settings->Preamble and the LyX layout file. 

Best,
Steve
