Zotero

Getting and Adding PDF's etc.

To make Zotero's "locate" function (right panel of Zotero) direct your browser to the articles, e-journals, etc. that MU has purchased, you need to set up your Zotero preferences - a one-time process.

  1. Open Zotero's Preferences. Preferences are in the Zotero menu at the top of your screen on a Mac, and in the Edit menu in Zotero on a PC.
  2. Go to the Advanced tab. The "General" sub-tab should open by default, but if it does not, select it.
  3. In the box for Resolver, delete whatever is in that field and replace it with: http://library.missouri.edu/findit

Instructions for attaching the PDF's, Word files, spreadsheets, etc. that are already stored on your computer to your Zotero items are on Zotero's page on attaching files.
