Cite Resources with Zotero

The lesson below requires an internet connection. If your internet is unreliable, consider these two options instead (or in addition):


  1. Download the individual PDFs

    1. Insert a citation with Zotero (explains how to use Zotero when you type your papers)

    2. Create a bibliography with Zotero (explains how to collect your individual citations into a bibliography)

    3. Zotero: Pro-tips! (provides some hints for using Zotero most effectively)

  2. Download this entire lesson as a .zip file (after downloading, unzip the archive, find story.html, and open it in your web browser -- no internet needed!)


Note: the lesson and PDFs use a simplified interface so you can more easily see what matters. The real Zotero interface will have more features that are not shown in the lesson or the PDFs.
