Zotero and EndNote Courses to Start This Month

WSU Libraries will begin offering courses this month for those interested in learning more about two reference management systems, Zotero and EndNote.

Zotero is free, open-source reference management software for bibliographic data and related research materials, such as PDF files. EndNote is a commercial reference management software package, used to manage bibliographies and references when writing essays and articles.

Courses will be held on the following dates:

• Wednesday, Sept. 10, and Tuesday, Sept. 30: Zotero Refresher, 3-4 p.m., Terrell 105. For people already familiar with the software, the course covers Zotero with Microsoft Word, with mobile devices, Zotero tools and more. Bring your own laptop.
• Tuesday, Sept. 30: Zotero Beginner’s Workshop, 2:30-4:30 p.m., Terrell 105. Get a feel for the basics of Zotero.
• Wednesday, Oct. 29: EndNote Beginner’s Class, 10 a.m.-noon, Terrell 105. Ideal for people who have never used EndNote, but are interested in learning.
