Popis: The University of Waterloo library is promoting Zotero, citation management software that takes (most of) the pain of writing papers with citations. In this hands-on session, we will provide an overview of the software and help participants develop a level of familiarity with it so that they can begin working on their academic projects more efficiently. We will explore some unique case studies we have facilitated and provide insights into how Zotero can be used in a variety of academic contexts, allowing participants to gain a deeper understanding of how the software can benefit their research. Participants will have the opportunity to collaborate with others to annotate a PDF in Zotero and share it in real-time. This interactive exercise will enable participants to apply their newfound knowledge to practical scenarios, enhancing their understanding of how the software can streamline their citation management processes. Participants should set up their Zotero accounts and download Zotero for Windows/Mac and Zotero Connector before the session. Links and information are available from our Zotero at University of Waterloo Research Guide. By attending the session, participants will gain valuable skills in citation management, enabling them to present accurate and consistent information in their projects. These skills can significantly simplify their work, freeing up time to focus on other important aspects of research. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your citation management capabilities and improve the quality of your academic work!
