Zotero Tips and Tricks

Robert W. Gehl, 01 December 2020

If you're not using Zotero... I don't know what to say.

If you are, you're well on your way to living the FOSS Academic Lifestyle Dream.

Zotero is a citation manager. And I've been using it so long I have a library of nearly 24,000 items.

Zotero is a core part of my academic work. I run everything through it. If I see a talk at a conference -- the citation's going in Zotero. Did I hear a good podcast? Put it in Z. Hey! that's a relevant blog post. Put it in Z. My colleague shared a great syllabus? Zot! Was that interesting a TV show? Oh, you know it's gonna go in there. And of course, I put all the books and journal articles I read in there.

Also, you guessed it: Zotero is FOSS (in this case, GNU GPL 3.0).

In this Goal 1 post, I want to talk Zotero tips and tricks -- things I always do when I install and run this excellent piece of software.
