Overview

Save references to Zotero from your web browser

Zotero is a free, easy-to-use, open-source tool to help you collect, organize, annotate, cite, and share research. The Zotero Connector automatically senses content as you browse the web and allows you to save items to Zotero with a single click. If a PDF is available, the Connector can save it to your library to read later, and it can even save snapshots of webpages in case they change or disappear. Whether you're searching for a preprint on arXiv.org, a journal article from JSTOR, a news story from the New York Times, or a book from your university library catalog, Zotero has you covered with support for thousands of sites. Additionally, if you use a web-based proxy to access resources your institution subscribes to, the Zotero Connector can automatically redirect you through the proxy when you follow links to those sites from elsewhere on the web, making sure that you always have access to PDFs and other gated content. While the Connector can save most pages directly to your zotero.org account, for the full Zotero experience be sure to install the Zotero desktop app, which allows you to organize your references efficiently, insert citations automatically into Word, LibreOffice, and Google Docs, and much more. You can download Zotero for free from https://www.zotero.org/download We are happy to help with any issues you encounter with the Zotero Connector, but we cannot do so through the Chrome Web Store.

Zotero allows me to manage collections of documents, local, on the web... Want to avoid SEO driven search engines? Zotero helps with that. Want a smarter alternative to browser Bookmarks? Zotero helps with that. Want your own copy of online resources, just in case they disappear? Zotero helps with that. The list goes on... I can't believe I ever lived without Zotero.

If you're having trouble with something in Zotero, please post to the Zotero Forums at https://forums.zotero.org so we can help you. We're not able to provide support here, and the Zotero Connector doesn't have anything to do with syncing.

You say the problem is Google Docs, but MS Word extension is also dysfunctional right now. This is very bad because the scientific work it is used for is heavily dependent on time schedules. Nobody has time to transfer citations as they take hours to compile already, and Zotero has a really narrow margin of error in terms of operational quality. Now we see it is completely failing. I might have to switch to Mendeley, which is a decision I am not happy with, but obliged to, in order to conti... Show more

If you're having trouble with something, please post to the Zotero Forums at https://forums.zotero.org so that we can help you. We provide direct, 24/7 support there. A change in Google Docs being tested by Google broke Zotero's Google Docs integration for a small number of people, and we rolled out a fix within a day. If you're still having trouble, please let us know in the forums. Word integration wouldn't have anything to do with the Zotero Connector, so it's not relevant here. But there've been no recent changes to Word integration and no reports of problems, so whatever you're seeing is likely something specific to your system. We're happy to help you troubleshoot that, but the only way we can do that is if you let us know in the forums.
