Used to RefWorks? Zotero has similar functionality. Here's some "how to's" that describe how to perform typical functions in Zotero:

1. Exporting from PubMed

• See this guide from the UAB Libraries. Note that there are two ways to import references, through the Web Connectoror by exporting (see instructions on the left of the UAB guide page). Don't have the Web Connector? See a this guide from Georgia State.

2. Exporting from Ovid MEDLINE or Ovid journals

• Click Export and under Format, instead of clicking RefWorks, choose RIS
• Double-click your downloaded RIS file and it should open in Zotero

2. Exporting from CINAHL

• Add citations to your Folder, and in Folder view, click Export, then instead of choosing Direct Export to RefWorks choose Direct Export in RIS format (e.g. CITAVI, EasyBib, EndNote, ProCite, Reference Manager, Zotero)
• Double-click your downloaded RIS file and it should open in Zotero
