Learning outcomes
After attending this workshop, you will know how to use Zotero to
- collect and organize sources you may have or find in Oria, Google Scholar, and other databases, or record manually
- tag and annotate material individually and as a group
- cite as you write in Word (or Google Docs, LibreOffice, or any other word processor you might use), in the reference style of your choice
- automatically create a bibliography (reference list) of all the references you have used
Working methods
Demonstration with practical examples and exercises. Instruction will be in English, unless everyone is competent in Norwegian, and we can also answer questions in Norwegian.
