What is Zotero?
So what exactly is Zotero?
Zotero is a free, easy-to-use tool which allows you to collect, organize, cite, and share your research sources. It automatically senses content (articles, videos, images, etc.) as you browse the web and allows you to save items to your library with a single click.
Why use Zotero?
Zotero keeps all your research sources and information in one place and allows you to quickly access websites, PDF files, and book information. With the Word plug-in tool or Google Docs integration, you can cite your research and create bibliographies as you type.
How is Zotero different from EndNote?
Zotero is very similar to EndNote. However, advantages to using Zotero include its ability to integrate with Google Docs and the ability to maintain access to your Zotero account and files after you graduate or leave the college.
