With the end of the spring semester rapidly approaching, with papers due and exams looming, students are stressed. So we asked our librarians (who were once students themselves) to recommend helpful resources. Below is the first response we received and it is certainly timely.

Barbara Quintiliano, Nursing/Life Sciences and Instructional Services librarian, recommends Zotero as a useful tool for both students and faculty. Quitiliano says, “Save time! Zotero lets you save references with a single click and then create bibliographies in the documentation style.” At this time in the academic year, anything that saves time while writing those last minute papers or projects is wonderful.

Not only does Zotero save time, but it is easy to install and intuitive to use. To install Zotero, go to https://library.villanova.edu/research/topic-guides/zotero-installation/
