So this week I have been writing a literature review for my Bsc research project. Not been to bed before 2am all week, but in the end I was pretty happy with what I produced.
Fortunately, whilst I was in Bath back in April, I discovered an amazing piece of software called Zotero ( www.zotero.org ). Zotero to quote their site is:
Zotero [zoh-TAIR-oh] is a free, easy-to-use Firefox extension to help you collect, manage, and cite your research sources. It lives right where you do your work — in the web browser itself.
It has a plug-in to Neo Office (open office), which lets me add citations directly, it also builds the bibliography for me and maintains both the citations and the bibliography as you work.
As I worked on the literature review this week, I have been counting my blessings that I discovered this gem of a piece of software! It must have saved me quite seriously 6 or 7 hours work! Seriously! The last assignment I did without it (which was half the size I think) I spent 3 hours doing the referencing!!! So I am totally in love with Zotero!
Do check it out !
