Zotero is a tool to help you organize your research, especially your literature review materials. In this workshop you will learn how to use Zotero to collect and organize resources and to automatically format citations for your project. This is a hybrid workshop - join us in person in Tisch Library, or on Zoom.
Please make sure you have Zotero installed and running on your laptop before the workshop.
