Zotero – Reference management

Do you want to write a paper that cites other articles? Are you struggling with references and citations? Do you need to organise your research or create a bibliography with one click?

Zotero is a free open source reference management tool that helps you build your own reference library. It supports you when sorting and collecting information. Citing will be more efficient and you can collaborate with your peers through group libraries.
