There are 3 ways to create the bibliography on Zotero:
1. Add a Page Break for the Bibliography
2. Create the Bibliography within Zotero and export as a Rich Text File
3. Add the Bibliography only when you have typed up all of your research
The examples below are done on Microsoft Word.
Type up your research/sections/chapters of the research. Insert your Zotero citations as you go along.
In MS Word, you need to insert a page break into your document. Press ‘Insert’ and then ‘Page Break’. The bibliography will go below this.
Go to the Zotero tab on Word and press the ‘Add/Edit Bibliography'.
The Bibliography now appears below the page break.
As you type more content into your document, and add more Zotero references, every time you press the Bibliography button thereafter, it will automatically update the Bibliography below the page break with the additional references.
In Zotero, right click on the Zotero folder you want to create a bibliography for. Select ‘Create Bibliography from Collection’ from the dropdown.
Save as RTF file. It will ask you to then save it in your folders on your PC.
When you open the file it will open as an RTF on word, where you can make edits and then paste into your research document.
Type up all of your research. Add your Zotero citations as you go along. After all your content is typed, click the cursor where you want the Bibliography to appear. Press the Add/Edit Bibliography.
The Bibliography appears at the bottom of the page where you placed your cursor.
