Do you Zotero?

Zotero is an awesome Firefox plug-in that helps you collect, manage, and cite your research sources. Download citations directly from our databases or from the Web, prepare bibliographies, and insert citations directly into your paper as you write. Zotero can even automatically format your citations into MLA, APA, or Chicago style!

And best of all... it's completely FREE!

Check out the Zotero web site at http://www.zotero.org to download Zotero for yourself! And make sure to check out their Support page, for a Quick Start Guide and other tutorials. Zotero is already available on all computers in Horrmann Library and in Spiro Computer Lab.

Zotero works only with the Firefox browser. If you don't already have Firefox, you can download it for free from the Firefox web site.

Would you like to schedule a one-on-one session with a librarian to learn how to use Zotero? If interested, please contact me at dschaub@wagner.edu, or by phone at 390-3378, to set up an appointment. I'd be happy to show you how this free tool can save you time and improve your research!
