Business & Economics Research Guide: Zotero Research Management

No drop-in workshops are planned at this point.

Want to set up a workshop? Contact us.

For instructors: We generally offer 80 minute workshops, but also have a 50 minute variation where students watch the overview video on this page and set up an account with Zotero before the workshop. If you would like to discuss adding a Zotero workshop to your class send an email to the Libraries.

What Zotero Does

Zotero (pronounced "zoh-TAIR-oh") is a research management application that works with your Firefox, Chrome, or Safari browser to collect, manage, and cite research sources. It's fairly easy to use, connects to your web browser and word processor where you do your work, and best of all it's free.

Zotero allows you to attach PDFs, notes and images to your citations, organize them into collections for different projects, and create bibliographies.

It automatically updates itself periodically to work with new online sources and new bibliographic styles.

Before or after watching the presentation you can download Zotero for free by clicking here.
