Zotero

There are four ways to easily add references into your Zotero library. 

• Use the Zotero Browser Connector with library databases.
• Drag a PDF into the Zotero app
• Enter the ISBN of a book or the DOI number of an article to the Zotero app
• Manually enter the citation into the Zotero app

Using the Connector:

• Open the Zotero program or app
• Make sure the connector (extension) is enabled and pinned to the bar
• Find or choose your item
  • library database: article, ebook, data set
  • browser: article link, PDF, etc 

The image below shows that:

• I am using JSTOR database
• I've selected an article 
• my Zotero connector is pinned to the top bar
• and "Save to Zotero" shows the program is connected
  

• Once your article/item is open, click the paper icon (extension)

Next, open the Zotero program

• The same article will appear with the citation information
• The categories show: title, creator, and the paperclip icon shows the content format (PDF)

Connector not working?

• Grab the ISBN or DOI from the item or article
• Select the wand tool (icon) in Zotero
• copy/paste the number
• It will populate the citation information
