Zotero
Zotero is a free, user-friendly research tool designed to assist with collecting, organizing, annotating, citing, and sharing research work. Users can save various types of sources, such as journal articles, newspapers, books, and webpages, in their Zotero library. The tool also allows for automatic downloading of article PDFs and quick addition of physical books and articles using iPhone or iPad cameras.
Researchers can organize their work using collections and tags, as well as view and edit bibliographic information for items in their library. Annotation features enable users to add highlights, notes, and freehand annotations to PDFs, either on-screen or with an Apple Pencil.
Zotero offers citation generation in over 10,000 formats and journal styles, including APA, Chicago, MLA, and more. Users can collaborate with colleagues by sharing sources and marking up PDFs in group libraries, and syncing personal and group libraries for easy access via the desktop app or website.
Zotero prioritizes user privacy and data control, as an independent nonprofit organization committed to providing the best research software without selling user data. For more information or support, users can visit zotero.org or engage with the Zotero Forums for bug reports, feature requests, and direct communication with the Zotero development team.
