Adding Web Pages

Adding a Website

Zotero can recognize metadata (description information) from many websites. When reading an article on one of these sites, Zotero will display an button that looks like a piece of paper or a newspaper in the address bar. Click on that button to save the article to your Zotero library.


If the webpage does not provide high quality metadata, Zotero cannot pull information from that website. Don't worry...You can still add this source to your Zotero library.

Click on the Zotero button to see whether the page will be saved with all of the webpage information or if it will be saved as a website with just a snapshot of the page. You can always go into your Zotero library and add the necessary information later.
