The Use of Zotero in Social Science Research

Summary/Abstract: Citing, and citing sources in academic/scientific studies is a requirement of publication ethics, and is important. In this way, it is possible to reach the source of information. Many problems arose wAhen attribution, and citation were given manually years ago. These problems have been solved with the programs that emerged as a result of the development of technology/software,, and citation, and citation have become automatic. Among them, Zotero is one of the software that is widely used around the world, and has an important place in this field,, and it is a useful individual resource management tool. With this program, 35 different source information used in the study such as books, articles,, and encyclopedia articles can be saved either manually or automatically from the internet. These tags, which are recorded only once, are used continuously. In addition, the files of the sources used can be archived in pdf format. Zotero supports over 10,000 different citation styles, which provides great convenience to the researcher. Another aspect of Zotero is that it allows the researcher to follow the sources he uses in each of his studies by classifying his studies. With Zotero, it is possible to add easy, regular,, and accurate footnotes, and bibliography while writing works such as theses, articles,, and books in Word. When the researcher sends an article to a different journal, he has to change the citation style,, and doing this manually takes a significant amount of time. With this software, it is automatically done in a very short time to translate the footnotes, and sources of the study into any citation style. Thus, researchers have the opportunity to devote the time they spend to creating footnotes, and bibliography to the quality of the research. In this paper, the use, and important steps of Zotero, which ensures that footnotes, and bibliography, which are very important in social science research, are given without errors, and in a short time, will be emphasized,, and different uses specific to the field of Theology will be pointed out.
