Video Length: 0min 45sec

TASK TWO: Check out the Zotero Forums

Zotero Forums is another place to go for help. Instead of detailed how-to instructions, here you'll find active discussions boards. As an added bonus, often times the people answering the discussion board questions are the same people who develop the software. 

1. Go to Zotero.org and select Forums.

2. Browse or search for questions or start your own discussion.
