COLLECTIONS
You can create collections (folders) to create specific, well-defined categories within your library. Note that items can be assigned to multiple categories, and that doing so does not duplicate the item. For more information about collections & collections properties, view the Zotero Collections and Tags page.

TAGS
Like hashtags, Zotero tags allow you to add helpful descriptors to your items. In addition to adding content-related keywords, think about also adding status / action keywords (e.g. "Read Later," "Cited In Mythology Paper"). For more information about tags, view the Zotero Collections and Tags page.

CREATING CITATIONS
Note: If you are sending your paper to someone else, consider removing the codes. Zotero inserts codes into Word so the citations can be updated and refreshed. The codes can be removed, however, if you want to share your document with someone who is not using Zotero.
CREATING BIBLIOGRAPHIES
Note: You can drag and drop a reference into any text editor (Word, email, blog) to insert a full bibliographic entry.
