Google & Google Scholar: Exporting to Zotero

Learn about Google Advanced Search, tools to stay up to date, and how to set up Google Scholar settings so that search results will show MBKU Library links.

Exporting Citations from Google to Zotero

Google Scholar

  1. From the results page, click on the double quotes icon from the reference you'd like to add to Zotero.
  2. Select RefMan at the bottom of the pop-up window.
  3. Another screen will appear asking if you would like to import items from Google Scholar. Select OK.  If you would like to avoid seeing this window in the future select "Always allow for this site" before clicking OK.

NOTE: Depending on the accessibility of the item, Zotero may not automatically download the PDF. 


Zotero Connector for Multiple Items

Zotero Connector also allows users to capture multiple references when it identifies a webpage with multiple entries. You will know you can capture multiple references when the Zotero Connector icon is a yellow folder.

  1. You may export all results or just a selection of citations from the results page.
  2. Click on the Zotero Connector yellow folder icon in the upper right corner of your browser.
  3. In the new window select  which references you would like exported. 
  4. The citation and any available PDFs will be downloaded to Zotero.
