Introduction to Zotero: A Citation Manager

Managing citations is an essential skill for all undergraduate students. Join a librarian for 30-minutes to learn about Zotero, free software to help you manage your research. Students will learn how to:

• quickly save citations from Yale Library resources and from on the web
• organize citations into a collection / folder / group
• generate a bibliography using Microsoft Word or Google Docs
• take notes to avoid plagiarism

Before this session, students are welcome to download Zotero (optional). For instructions, see: guides.library.yale.edu/citationmanagement.

Audience: This workshop is intended for anyone new to using Zotero. Yale students, faculty, and staff are welcome to attend.

Registration: Registration required. You will receive a reminder email 1-hour before the event with the link to the Zoom room.

NEW: Any student who participates in at least 3 library workshops during the fall 2021 semester will be eligible for a prize! How it works: Register for a library workshop or tour. After you have attended at least 3, a librarian will contact you with information about how to pick up your prize. Learn more about this incentive program at: guides.library.yale.edu/WorkshopIncentiveProgram.

Experienced Zotero users might consider taking the workshop “Next Steps with Zotero”. If you have a specific question or if workshop dates do not work with your schedule, reach out to your Personal Librarian or Subject Specialist Librarian for help.
