Zotero at the Library

The library's computers all have Zotero installed on them, but you'll need to take a couple of steps before using it:

  • Open the Zotero download page.
  • Install the browser extension for Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge.
  • If necessary, restart your browser.

Make sure to back up your work to your Zotero account or flash drive -- any work you do on GSU's computers will be erased when you log out.

About Zotero

A screenshot of the Zotero application

Zotero (pronounced "zoh-TAIR-oh") is an application that collects, manages, and cites research sources. It's easy to use, connects with your web browser to download sources, and best of all it's free.

Zotero allows you to attach PDFs, notes and images to your citations, organize them into collections for different projects, and create bibliographies.
