This online course is for anyone who would like to learn Zotero (pronounced zoh-TAIR-oh), a free tool for managing and citing your bibliographic references. The lessons are designed for complete beginners and I’ll walk you through every step with clear instructions, and short videos. The course is also suitable for anyone who has been using Zotero for a little while, but suspects they’re not taking advantage of all the features, such as color-coding tags and creating saved searches.

I’ve been using Zotero for nearly 10 years and it’s definitely made my life much easier. I’d love to make your life easier, too!
