Zotero is a free, open source, easy-to-use citation management program that helps you to collect, manage, cite, and share your research sources. It lives right where you do your work - in your web browser. Designed to be intuitive and unobtrusive, Zotero is a powerful and handy tool for any academic.
Zotero works on all three major operating systems: PC, Mac, and Linux!
IMPORTANT: Since Zotero captures the information from databases and Web sites, the final version of your notes and/or bibliography may be incorrect (i.e. missing information or in the wrong order). You still need to know the specific citing style that you are using.
