Scholar for Firefox is now Zotero (zoh-TAIR-oh). This next-generation research tool is currently in private beta. Watch this space for the public beta in the fall of 2006.
Zotero: - captures citation information you want from a web page automatically, without typing or cutting and pasting on your part, and saves this information directly into the correct fields (e.g., author, title, etc.) of your Zotero library
- lets you store—beyond citations—PDFs, files, images, links, and whole web pages
- allows you to easily take notes on the research materials you capture
- makes it easy to organize your research materials in multiple ways, such as folders, saved searches (smart folders), and tags
- offers fast, as-you-type search through your materials so that you can quickly find that source that you only vaguely remember
- lets you export formatted citations to your paper, article, book, or website
- has an easy-to-use, modern interface that simplifies all of your research tasks, with "where has that been?" features such as autosaving your notes as you type
- runs right in your web browser and is a platform for new forms of digital research that can be extended with other web tools and services
- is free and open source
- has a name that is loosely based on the Albanian (yes, Albanian) word zotëroj, meaning "to acquire, to master," as in learning
