Overview

This page describes how Kate installed and used the Zotero web tool for citations for the NAR2015 publication. Cath made this document about Zotero for the NAR2016 publication. Since then things have changed, so below is information from before 2020 and then after 2020, some information from both sections may be helpful for future Zotero users.

Steps

  • Restarted FF and browsed to a few articles, clicked on article icon in search entry box to add them to lib.
  • In Zotero app, went to Preferences->Cite->Styles, then clicked '+'. Selected file I had saved.

(Now I see that from the 'Get Additional Styles' link you can get NAR, without what I did in previous step. Fooled me -- I had previously looked there for 'Chemical Abstracts', which isn't there).

  • Restart Word. There's a little menu attached at the upper left. You can insert a citation there

(picking NAR style) to your doc and it will show up as an inline ref. There's an 'insert bibliography' that spits out the references. And if you re-order things, a 'Refresh' will renumber. NOTE: if you don't see this menu, there's a scroll glyph with a drop-down menu...

It takes a few minutes to figure out where/what the little menu icons are for the client and word plug-in.
