If you click the save button on webpages, Zotero will import the page as a “Web Page” item with a title, URL, and access date. Webpages do not provide metadata that Zotero can recognize and this will be indicated by a gray webpage icon, rather than an icon for a book or journal article. Sometimes you may want to reference a website, webpage, or blog. In this screenshot below, you can see that it has saved information about the article, a snapshot of the website, and even grabbed the PDF! If you're using Chrome and you're on the page for a journal article, then the save button will look like this:
If you're using Chrome and you're on the page for a book, then the save button will show a book icon like this: Here is an example of what the extension button looks like in Firefox. Then click the Zotero extension button, and Zotero will do all the work for you, saving information about this item to your library. This could be a library catalog, a database, Google scholar, or even an Amazon listing (in the case of books). To get a citation for a resource, such as a book or journal article, first go to the webpage for the item. If you need to, you can later edit the entry, but it's pretty accurate as-is!
If the item's listing includes a PDF, Zotero will automatically add that as well. The browser extension scrapes bibliographic metadata from the web page of a resource and adds it to your library. There are versions available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. The easiest way to add a citation to your library is by using Zotero Connector, the browser extension.
