Appendix: Installing Zotero Transcript
Speaker: In this video I'm going to teach you how to install Zotero. Zotero is a personal research assistant that helps you organize your references.
So the first thing you're going to do is go to zotero.org. You can see it up here [the cursor points to the URL at the top of the browser], and then click on download [the cursor moves to the Zotero page to a red ‘Download’ button and clicks on it].
[The new page shows two options for downloading Zotero: Zotero 5.0 for Mac and Zotero Connector for your Chrome browser.]
Because it knows that I have a Mac, it all automatically comes up with ‘Zotero for Mac ’ [the cursor points to the Mac download option], and it also asks me if I want to install the Zotero connector [the cursor points to the Chrome Zotero connector download option]. Because I'm using Chrome, that's what I want to install, as well.
So what I'm going to do is I'm going to click on ‘Download’ [the cursor selects the ‘Download’ button for “Zotero 5.0 for Mac”], and I already have this installed, so I'm not going to install it again, but it downloads [the cursor points to the file that downloaded in the bottom left of her browser] and then I can install it for my platform.
The next thing you're going to do also is install the connector. So if I click on ‘Install Chrome Connector’ [the cursor selects that button, and the page goes to the Chrome Web Store to the Zotero Connector Extension page], you can see right here it already says ‘Remove from Chrome [the cursor points to this button]. That means I already have it installed.
[The cursor clicks the back arrow in the top left of the browser to go to the previous page.]
Now also there's other connectors for browsers [the cursor selects a link under the Zotero Connector option that says “Zotero Connectors for other browsers”, which brings up other browser icons] so you can also install it on Firefox, Safari, or Edge. So I would suggest using one of those browsers if you're going to use Zotero.
And now after you have it installed, if you can look up here in this corner [the cursor points to the extensions menu at the top right of the browser] you see there's this little paper here, and if I hover over that she does this], it says “Save to Zotero”. So after you get that installed, come back and watch the next video.
