Getting Started with Zotero

 

Zotero works within Firefox, so you have to have Firefox 3 or higher installed before you can use Zotero. 

Note that Zotero comes in two versions currently; the 2.0 Beta version is still under development and might not work properly for everyone.  However, it does have some significant features you might want to explore, like online syncing of your library and files. 

For version 1, if you want to be able to work on multiple computers, you will need to install and run both Firefox and Zotero on a flashdrive. For more details, see the Zotero FAQ (via the tab above).

For more information on using Zotero, watch the video below or read the Zotero Quick Start page.
