Use this guide to help you find resources for your major.

Zotero (opens a new tab) is a free open-source reference management system that collects, manages, and cites sources. Use it for different classes for each stage of your research to organize and gather your sources. It seamlessly integrates with different browsers to collect your research sources and works well with Microsoft Word by helping you create a literature list in different citation formats. 

Zotero can capture citation information from different kinds of sources, this includes library catalogs, newspapers, blogs, online videos and even social media posts! There's a lot of great information about how to use Zotero--including video tutorials (opens a new tab) from the Zotero team. For even more in-depth knowledge about Zotero, check out Jason Puckett's Georgia State University research guide (opens a new tab).

You can also make an appointment with me and I can guide you through some basics.
