• Need more than one Zotero library? You can use the Preferences–>Advanced Settings→Storage Location setting to switch between multiple Zotero libraries, including a local Zotero library (on your computer) and a network Zotero library. Using multiple Firefox profiles is also a viable option.

• When you have selected an item in the middle column, you can highlight all collections that contain this item by holding down the “Option” key on Mac OS X, the “Control” key on Windows, or the “Alt” key on Linux.

• Press “+” (plus) on the keyboard within the collections list or items list to expand all nodes and “-” (minus) to collapse them.

• To see the number of items in the selected library or collection, click an item in the middle column and use the Select All shortcut (Command-A on Mac OS X or Control-A on Windows and Linux). A count will appear in the right column (attachments are included in the count when visible, i.e. when the parent item is expanded).

• Are you unable to adjust the size of the Zotero pane downwards beyond a certain point? Close the tag selector (e.g. by dragging the splitter above the tag selector down), as it has a minimum height.

• You can convert the contents of the title and publisher fields to either lower or title case by right-clicking the field and using the Transform Text menu.

• When using Quick Copy, holding the “Shift” key while dragging and dropping the item(s) into a text document will insert a citation instead of full reference(s).

• Zotero supports the standard Firefox shortcut keys for tab/window opening: Ctrl/Cmd-click for a new tab behind, Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-click for a new tab in front, and Shift-click for a new window.

• You can use and sync image in your notes in Zotero 2.0 by following these steps: 1. Save your image as an item attachment in Zotero. 2. Double-click on the attachment from within Zotero. The image will show up in your browser window. 3. Open the note you are editing. 4. Click on the image in the main browser window and drag it to the appropriate place in your note. 5. That's all! The image should now display properly and sync between computers.

• Manually adding a number of authors to a Zotero item? You can use Shift+Enter after typing each name as a faster alternative to clicking the “+” button.

• There are a number of hidden preferences which can be enabled through Firefox's about:config page. For more on what they are and how to enable them, see the hidden prefs page.
