Zotero is an easy-to-use online bibliographic tool to help you export, collect, organize, cite, and create bibliographies from your research sources.

It allows you to do the following:

1. Save and store articles into user-created folders for different courses and research projects.
2. Store the full text of these documents and annotate them with the student's own notes.
3. Generate in-text citations and bibliographies in whatever format you need.

The two aspects of Zotero consist of a connector that is embedded in your browser and the desktop application. The application has already been downloaded to all the computers in the Mahoney Library, the Academic Success Center and the Henderson Hall labs. Students only need to register for an account to make use of this program.

Students can also download these versions to their own computers (provided they have administrator rights) by following the procedures found in the step-by-step instructions for accessing and installing Zotero.
