Tony Hoffman, "The Best Free Software," PC Magazine 20 February 2007: 68. A roundup of the best “tried-and-true” free applications on the web. Zotero is singled out by PC Magazine as a must-have Firefox extension. “Our recommendations are the apps that real people use everyday, at work and at home, for all kinds of tasks . . . They're tried and tested, the best tools you can get—and they're all free.”

“The Web browser has become an essential tool for many academics, a versatile window into books, journal articles, blogs, and other research materials. Why not create a customized browser with professors' needs in mind?” The Chronicle of Higher Education

“A godsend for anyone doing research online.” Mark Stachiew in The Ottawa Citizen Nov 16 2006

“Zotero is a valuable product” The Hindu

“If you spend most of your time doing research on the Web, you need Zotero” Linux.com

Youth services librarian Erin Downey says of Zotero “I can't tell you … how much time the Zotero extension saves me … Compiling a “proper” bib *used to be* my most time-consuming task. Now it's the easiest.”

Zotero “is perhaps the best Firefox extension that most users have never heard of, unless you are an academic historian or social scientist, in which case Zotero is becoming quite the rage. It is also percolating into other academic fields, including law, math and science.” AI3

Zotero “is a revolution in how to approach collecting references and even more importantly it is free. This means that more people that ever before can access these essential tools and in the long run information will flow more freely and accurately between people.” Organic Researcher

“I have been using Zotero for a number of months and I can safely say it’s one of my most favorite research tools…I don’t do this often, but I highly recommend Zotero.” Home Office Voice: Bringing you the best of the home office on the web

Librarian Amanda Watson notices “it completely lacks the annoyances that plague RefWorks, and it makes the whole citation process so quick and intuitive that I wish it had appeared on the scene years ago. And it's also free. Which is no small consideration, either!” Householdopera

Jay S. Fleischman a New York bankruptcy lawyer says of Zotero “Every lawyer wants this” Bankruptcy Practice Pro

Building Consultant Engineer Khaled Abou Alfa is “amazed by the quality of the Zotero plugin for Firefox….Easily one of the best plugins for Firefox I’ve stumbled on in a long time” Brokenkode

Comparing Zotero to EndNote. “Zotero is better. First off, its free. EndNote costs well over $100 I think. Let's say I go to the Washington Post website and read today's news. Dum-dee-dee, I'm clicking along until I find something interesting. Since I've already downloaded Zotero, all I have to do is click on a little icon, and boom! it creates a bibliographic citation and saves a copy of the article for future reference” Aldeman a graduate student in Virginia

A Graduate Student notes, “I've been going nuts over Zotero” Sophistpundit

Chris a graduate student in New York says “THIS “ZOTERO” has to be the coolest thing ever. It's better than EndNote, and it's FREE!!!” Radio Free Blogerica

“Its simple to learn, not bloated with features and intuitive.” Bala Chandar, a graduate student in Germany working on RNA interference in Dictyostelium, on her blog, “ Efficent Academic”

“It's the ultimate in digital note card technology.” Dan Rosenberry, a student in Pittsburgh

“The way we do research has changed so much, but I just don’t think the research management tools have really kept pace. It’s nice to see that people are actually working to develop tools that are designed to be integrated into our online life rather than requiring us to totally change the way we do things. It sounds like Dan Cohen and his colleagues are really interested in making this a flexible tool that works well with other online tools and meets the needs of its user population.” Librarian Meredith Farkas on her blog, Information Wants to be Free

“Researchers, students and librarians everywhere wondering how they ever did without it.” “Zotero should leapfrog EndNote in total functionality, and allow the user to remain entirely within the browser while conducting research.” Deadreckoning

“Zotero is already an amazing piece of software that could change the way we do history.” William J. Turkel, Assistant Professor University of Western Ontario, on his blog (Digital History Hacks: Methodology for the infinite archive)

“Groundbreaking. A glimpse of the 21st century scholarly information landscape.” Matthew G Kirschenbaum, Assistant Professor of English at University of Maryland, College Park
