Zotero Guide

How to Share Citations with Others

If you create an online Zotero account, you can create either public or private Groups with whom you can build a shared online Zotero library. These Groups can be opened to your research collaborators or students.

To create a Group:

  1. Log in to your online Zotero account
  2. Click on Groups, then on Create a New Group
  3. Name your group and decide whether it will be Public or Private
  4. Click on Group Settings, then Member Settings, and then Send More Invitations. Type in the email addresses of who you'd like to invite.

You and other group members can now save citations to the shared group library.
