Before Christmas I downloaded Zotero as an add-on to my Firefox browser. I went on to gather a number of sources but then left it for a number of weeks while I worked on other essays. When I returned to it to do further work I couldn’t find it on my browser so went looking for my account on the Zotero website but no joy. I emailed the guys at Zotero who also searched for my account before tactfully suggesting that maybe I had just downloaded Zotero but never registered online and synced my stuff! Unfortunately, they were dead right! I had downloaded Zotero but when I got rid of my old laptop my Zotero and Firefox went with it. Anyway, a little wiser, I began again. This time I registered online too so hopefully I can access my Zotero files from any computer though I haven’t tried that yet. I am still trying to get used to saving things to Zotero instead of bookmarking them but am getting better.
I recently downloaded a Zotero add-on for Microsoft Word for generating footnotes and bibliographys. Above is an example of a bibliography I generated using this. Actually creating a bibliography made me realise how very useful the programme is so I look forward to a long and happy relationship!
