1 Introduction
Zotero is a research tool for managing references and citations. It is free, easy-to-use Mozilla Firefox
browser extension and desktop stand alone application. It helps one to collect, manage, and cite
research sources. It provides users with automated access to bibliographic information for resources
viewed online. Using “translators” for several websites, online databases including library catalogues,
commercial sites, Zotero “senses” the bibliographic information contained in a web page and when
user clicks the Zotero Icon it gathers that information and places it in the user’s machine (by default it
is My Library).
In addition to bibliographic information, Zotero also has features to attach full text documents for
lateral reference and facilitates marking of important text in the document. One can even manually
add notes to a particular reference or document.
In this way researchers can quickly and easily collect the information they need later to review. It also
has easy to use functions to cite references and create bibliographies in standard formats such as APA,
Chicago Manual of Style, MLA, MPA and so on. It facilitates having a centralized location of references.
2 How to install Zotero?
Zotero is installed by visiting zotero.org/download and clicking the
“Zotero 3.0 for Windows” and “Firefox browser extension” buttons
on the Zotero Standalone in the web-page.
3 How to open Zotero?
Click the Zotero icon in the bottom-right corner of your browser window to open your Zotero library.
Alternatively you can open using the Zotero icon on the desktop. This brings up a pane with all of your
references, collections, and notes. You can close Zotero by clicking on the X icon in the upper right of
the Zotero window or by clicking on the logo again. The Zotero window does not have to be open for
you to do “quick saves” of material you want to add to your research collection.
To find where Zotero stores their files on your hard drive, click the Zotero button in the bottom-right
hand corner of your Firefox window, select the Actions tab>Preferences>Advanced. Here you can
either leave “Use Firefox profile directory” checked, or check the “Custom” box and then click the
“Choose” button in order to find your own location to store the files.

4 Types of items
Every item contains different metadata, depending on type of resource. Items can be everything from
books, articles, and documents to web pages, artwork, films, sound recordings, cases, or statutes,
among many others. Zotero supports more than 30 different types of sources.
5 Collecting References
5.1 Go to the website at http://scholar.google.co.in/
and conduct your search. From the list of results
page you can save all titles on each page by simply
clicking the folder icon next to the URL in your web
browser. When you click it a quick list of the titles
on the page will pop up and you can choose the
titles you want to download into Zotero or just
select all titles. When you click OK your titles will be
downloaded into Zotero. To access them, just click
the Zotero icon at the bottom of the browser.
You may need to verify author formats, title,
capitalization and other items in the record to
be sure it works properly with the citation output manager.

5.2 There are some web sites where you can get articles directly into Zotero. When reading an
article from http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/, for example, you will see a small newspaper icon
after your URL and if you click that – the article will be downloaded into Zotero.
5.3 On pages where you do not see the icon in the URL bar, you can click the Create New Item
from Page icon in Zotero (Firefox Extension) to get a quick start on adding that page to Zotero. You may
then need to edit the Zotero record to add all of the relevant information.
6 Organizing References
Zotero helps you to quickly organize your research resources, assign tags, add notes / comments, drag
& drop items, and search items.
6.1 Collections: Records on Zotero can be organized
in different collections depending upon area/s of research
the user is working on. To create new collection click on the
“New Collection…” icon on the tool bar, this will open a box
to enter the name of collection. When you click OK, new
collection folder will open in the left column of
Zotero. Right click on the collection name to undertake various functions such as create sub-collection,
rename, remove etc.
Items can be directly saved into these collections from the web by selecting the respective folder.
6.2 Drag and Drop items: Items from the middle column can be added to any collection / sub-
collection by dragging and dropping it in the appropriate folder.
6.3 Item maintenance: Each item / record is a standalone entity. The bibliographic details can be
edited / modified as required. Just click on the field, which will open an editable area, make necessary
entry as required.
6.3.1 Notes: Zotero allows inserting notes/comments in the record. To create a note, select the
record in the middle column of Zotero, and then click on ‘Notes’ tab in the right column and then select
“Add”. Then type your notes/comments and close the editor. This will be added as a child item of the
record.
Stand alone notes, not related to any record also can be created by choosing the option
“Create Standalone Note”.

tabs are useful for linking related records.
6.3.3 Attachments: Different types of materials including PDF can be attached to a record in Zotero.
Apart from automatic downloading, users also can manually attach stored files to the records. To
attach a file, select the record in the middle column of Zotero, and then right click and select “Add

selected item(s). The report is generated in HTML format, which can be printed using the print option
or can be saved as HTML file.
9 Word Processor Integration
Zotero can be easily integrated with MS-word, and Open Office.

have the capability to transfer the records from Zotero to the MS-Word file. And this can be done using
different styles as required.
9.1 Adding / Editing Citations: Open MS-Word and create a new document. As and when you type
the text, place the cursor where the citation needs to be inserted. Go to Add-ins – select Zotero Insert
Citation. Now select the appropriate citation style (only once for each document). The Zotero My
Library will be displayed, choose the citation to be added and click OK.
