It will enable all the functions described below.\n\n## Zotero connectors\n\nOnce the Zotero software is installed, it can be combined with [Zotero Connectors](https://www.zotero.org/download/connectors) for Web browsers in order to automatically retrieve data from online references. The Zotero software must be running for the connectors to be able to function. \n\n### Saving references \n\n#### Creating a collection\n\nIt is usually useful to create a collection in your Zotero library beforehand to organize saved references into different folders. Zotero references can be thought of as Web bookmarks. The Zotero library contains all the bookmarks, and Zotero collections are the equivalent of subfolders for bookmarks. Creating a collection is done in Zotero as follows :\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"http://g.recordit.co/ekhUQA6l0x.gif\" alt=\"Creating a collection\"/\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n#### Saving references from the browser\n\nWhile having the Zotero software running and once the browser connector has been installed, a reference can be saved into a collection using the following shortcut or clicking on the Zotero button in the browser toolbar when the reference's web page is visited :\n\n```\nCTRL + SHIFT + S (Windows)\nCMD + SHIFT + S (Mac OS) \n```\n:warning: The Mac OS shortcut is not supported in Safari, since it is used to actually bookmark the page. Safari users should therefore simply click on the Zotero connector button. \n\nIt will display a dialog box where the target collection can be set. Zotero will automatically retrieve all available data/metadata such as PDF, links and abstract and store it locally, as shown below :\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"http://g.recordit.co/u8x9xorovt.gif\" alt=\"Saving a reference\"/\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n## The Better BibTeX extension\n\n[Better BibTeX](https://retorque.re/zotero-better-bibtex/) can be used to extend the Zotero software to enable it to automatically export collections as `.bib` files and create citation keys that can be used in LaTeX files with `\\cite{articleKey}` to cite the references that have been previously stored. \n\nInstalling the Better BibTeX plug-in is necessary in order to be able to use the Atom package described below.\n\n## Zotero-picker\n\n[Zotero-picker](https://atom.io/packages/zotero-picker) makes it possible to easily cite the references using the citation keys created by Better BixTeX. Once the package is installed, `ALT + Z` should display a Zotero search bar that allows the user to browse his references and retrieve their citation key. \n\nNOTE : the `@` prefix that is automatically added to the citation key should be removed for the `\\cite{reference}` command.\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"http://g.recordit.co/z1ar8hovSN.gif\" alt=\"Citing a reference in Atom\"/\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Flaymer%2Fzoteroatomsetup","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Flaymer%2Fzoteroatomsetup","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Flaymer%2Fzoteroatomsetup/lists"}
