What is Zotero

Zotero is a free, easy-to-use tool to help you collect, organize, cite, share, and analyze your research sources. It lives right where you do your work—in the web browser itself. An extension is added to your browser and interacts seamlessly with online resources: when it senses you are viewing a book, article, or other object on the web, it can automatically extract and save complete references.
