                                                             What happened?
                                                 One modification directly on the
                                                 footnote (”and also” copy-paste)
                                                 One modification on Zotero (“name”)
                                                 Refresh -> conflict and two options
                                                 • Yes = Zotero keeps your Word
                                                    modification and your Zotero one
                                                 • No = Zotero erases your Word
                                                    modification and keeps the Zotero
                                                    one

What to do to avoid the conflict?
  Formal modifications (Author, date): Directly on Zotero
  Substantial modifications: Add/Edit citation
         Add “see also”, “and”…
         Multiple citations instead of the copy-paste
         Italic/Bold in the Editor

3 – Organization of Your
                Work and Mind-set
• Create connections between your documents
  – Organization of your library
  – Smart use of the tags and related
• Use Zotero as a working space
  – Pdf, Word Documents, Notes
  – Everything is automatically saved on the cloud
Create Connections Between
                          your Documents

Divide your library according to:
- Your project, thesis related / non thesis related
- Your thesis chapters
- To what purpose do you want to use the documents

Whenever your drag and drop a file, it results in a copy-paste
Select a document and hold ALT (mac) or CRTL (PC) to identify in which other folder
the document is
Create Connections Between
Your Documents – Tags

    Attach one colour to one basic function of
    the tag such as “To Read” ”Read” ”To
    Found”
Create Connections Between
your Documents – Related
       Imagine if you read a document and
       you extract numerous references
       The option “Related” is a sort of
       hyperlink
       You can use it to recreate in Zotero the
       reference network found in a
       document
Use Zotero as a Working
                Space
• PDF
  – Add any PDF and modify it without leaving
    Zotero
• Notes
  – Create a note and fill it while reading your PDF
• Word documents
  – Report on your doc ”Section XX” the notes you
    have written
