There are a few ways to add items to your Zotero library. The usual way is through your web browser, but you can also:
- create an item with the New Item button and enter all the information by hand
- use identifiers and add by ISBNs, DOIs and PubMed Identifiers
- add PDFs by hand (do this when you already have some research but now want to move it into Zotero)
- import from other reference managers (such as EndNote and Mendeley)
Aside from items such as books, articles, and web sites, you can also add notes and annotations.
