Citation Management with Zotero

Find Full-Text Articles

1. Find the full-text for an item using the locate arrow.  Clicking this arrow shows you options for finding the item in easiest to hardest order.

2.  Note:  If you are a The Chicago School faculty member, staff or student, to make the “library look up” option connect to The Chicago School University Library to quickly get you free access to articles for which you may not have already downloaded a PDF copy, follow these steps:

3. Navigate to Preferences in the Zotero toolbar. On a PC, the preferences menu is usually under the Edit menu. On a Mac, look under the Zotero heading:

4. Next, in Preferences choose the "Advanced" tab. (Make sure you are on the "General" tab within Advanced.) And paste this url into the "Resolver" box with the OpenURL section:

https://search.tcsedsystem.edu/discovery/openurl?institution=01TCSEDSYSTEM_INST&vid=01TCSEDSYSTEM_INST:TCSPP

Then click OK (or just exit the window if on a Mac). Once you have set this up, you can click the Library Lookup button on any citation you're viewing to search for the item online through The Chicago School University Library (and request it through interlibrary loan if we don't have it).
