Zotero [zoh-tair-oh]

For Eddies lesson we were given a task to compile a short bibliography using a Firefox add on called 'Zotero'. It's a handy way of keeping all of your online literature nicely organised and easily accessed.

I have decided to create a bullet point list breakingdown each area of reference for future assignments:
