Upcoming Workshops
Are you looking for an effective way to organize your research? Are you tired of typing out your bibliographies and citations by hand? Try learning Zotero! Zotero is a free, open-source citation manager. This workshop will cover how to build and organize your personal library, import citations from library databases, and create shared libraries for collaborative projects. Light snacks will be provided.
This workshop is the first workshop in our Zotero for the Humanities: Research Essentials Workshop Series.
If you’d like to follow along with the demonstration on your own device, plan to have Zotero and Zotero Connector (the browser plug-in) or Zotero iOS installed on your device before the session. This workshop will be taught in macOS and iOS.
Location: PCL Learning Lab 3 (PCL 2.350)
