The University Library of Medicine is making available online a new and updated Zotero user guide [french]. It replaces the old PDF guide, improves reading on all devices and covers the essential elements of basic use of this software.

Zotero is a free, open-source bibliographic data management tool that lets you create a personal bibliographic database from references imported directly from various sources. It can also be used as an aid to writing research papers in a word processor, by adding citations and automatically managing bibliographic references.

By creating an account on the zotero.org website, you can synchronise your library in the cloud and retrieve it on other devices. Please note that the UNIL community can benefit from unlimited storage [french] by registering with a UNIL email address, in accordance with the corresponding procedure [french].

Please note that Library offers training [french] in the use of this software, as well as personalised support for CHUV staff, UNIL and IUFRS FBM students and PhD candidates, and FBM teaching staff.

You can also consult the list of all the training courses [french] offered by the Library.
