Zotero

Zotero provides a variety of options for adding sources to your Library. This section provides step-by-step instructions on how to add sources to your Zotero Library in different ways. To edit an existing source record, look at the Modifying Source Records page. Note: the Style formatting (e.g. APA) occurs within your word processor not within your Library.

• Browser Add-on (Connector)
  This will be the primary way you add sources from the library catalog, databases, and open web sources.
• Search Results List
  Use this option when you want to add multiple sources from a search results list from a catalog, database, or the open web.
• Google Scholar
  Normally, you should go to the actual source and use the Browser Connector. Sometimes, that isn't possible. Here is an alternative method directly from the search results list.
• PDF Files
  If you have readable PDF files, this is quick and easy way to add a source record to your Library.
• RIS / tab-delimited file
  This method works best if you are transferring from one source manager to another. Also, for some databases this is the only option.
• Manually Add a Source
  When no other method is available you can add a source to your library manually.
