1. Zotero Plugin
2. Zotero Evernote Integration

1. Zotero is great for genealogy for all of these reasons and more: It is free, with the stability and support of a university backing it up. Even if you are syncing to the Zotero cloud, you can do that for years on free storage, before you have to buy some. And when you do buy storage, it’s inexpensive and unlimited.
2. 1 Export Zotero to Evernote. Create a folder labeled “Zotero” on your computer. To export the Zotero Library, open Zotero Standalone, select “File,” and then click “Export Library” to open the Export dialog box. Select a file format, click “OK,” locate and select your Zotero folder, and then click “Save.”. To export specific items, select an item from My Library list - or press “Ctrl” and select multiple items - right.
3. Why and How I use Zotero for Academic Writing comparison with EndNote + Mendeley #Zotero #CrossRef (Long Title)A Reference Manager is another essential too.

Zotero instantly creates references and bibliographies for any text editor, and directly inside Word, LibreOffice, and Google Docs. With support for over 9,000 citation styles, you can format your work to match any style guide or publication.

• You should be more specific on how such integration might work. (e.g. describe a use case.)
  You can already add links to Zotero items from other software. See e.g. this thread

• You're right, I think a use case is in order. Adding links to Zotero items from other software is not what I had in mind, nor does it solve the issues I'm thinking of.
  Problem scenario:
  1. I'm reading a book.
  2. I take notes with pen & paper.
  3. As I read the book, my notes are not searchable.
  4. I digitize my notes with any number of software solutions (Evernote, Google Drive, LiveScribe Pens).
  5. I now have an OCRd document.
  6. I have no way of easily adding this document to Zotero (to make it searchable/keep all my research in one place).
  I propose a workflow something like this. As I create a note document in Evernote or Google Drive, I can associate this document with a Zotero item.
  1. I write notes in Google Drive or Evernote (or import a document from a pen/paper digitizing software into Google Drive or Evernote).
  2. When I have a document open in Evernote.com or drive.google.com, there is a Zotero icon in my browser.
  3. When I click the Zotero icon, I can select a Zotero item that I allows me to associate the Google doc / Evernote note with the Zotero item.
  4. In Zotero, the Google doc / Evernote note appears in the list under the item (like an existing Zotero note or attached PDF).
  A second workflow:
  1. I right click an item in my zotero library.
  2. There is an option to attach a new Google doc and Evernote note.
  3. Clicking new Google doc or Evernote note, opens a new browser tab with a new Google doc or Evernote note open.
  Ideally Zotero could scan these documents, but I'd be okay with searching these documents in Evernote or Google Drive.
  The main issue is that the Zotero notes functionality is awesome, but limiting. Instead of recreating the wheel (adding Zotero note taking fucntionality), I'd like to see integration with the existing notes/documents applications out there. This would enable the broadest cross section of options.

• 6. I have no way of easily adding this document to Zotero (to make it searchable/keep all my research in one place).'

  You could add the note as a normal attachment. If it is in PDF format, then Zotero will also index it and allow you to search based on the note content. You can also add a link to a website version of an article as a link, but this would not make it searchable.
  The workflows that you describe could certainly be coded as plugins. The Zotero API is described here, if you want to go for it:

• Hi dillon and mronkko,
  I have a similar challenge and coincidentally I just made a post about it on the Evernote users forum. I think it would be beneficial to see some level of integration between Zotero and Evernote, but at the moment I do not have any specific suggestions for a proposed workflow. I am struggling to come up with a good workflow to integrate Zotero and Evernote to help manage research for my dissertation and ongoing courses. I would sincerely appreciate any suggestions you or others reading this thread might have. Thank you in advance.

• One solution to your workflow problems is to use Zotero for note taking. When I was taking courses I had a collection for each course and a subcollection for each lecture. Then I just stored all my notes and all the lecture material in these subcollections.
• mronkko - you're right, I could do that, and I have done that.
  But with the new evernote moleskine, or other features, we would have to wait for Zotero to develop this. It's certainly not in Zotero's core mission. But Zotero could provide 3rd party linking to other file types through a URI.

• this may be of interest: https://github.com/kmlawson/ZotDevon
  it's Devon Think specific, but at least the Zotero part could likely be adapted to other programs
• adamsmith - very interesting.
  I also saw ajylon's patch, ticket #1563 (add ability to add links by URI and edit existing link attachment URIs)
  https://www.zotero.org/trac/ticket/1563
  It seems using ZotDevon and DEVONThink would require importing/exporting and maintaining two databases - something I'm not willing to do. Linking, however, is very appealing.
• the add attachment - add link to URI function isn't working for me when I use an evernote URI - works fine when I use an http://
  Any help?
• Any news on this front? The workflow dillon proposed a few posts up is really appealing to me, as I also use both Evernote and Zotero extensively. A one-click solution for linking an Evernote doc with a Zotero item would be an incredible asset.
• it's now possible to add evernote:// links via add link to URI to Zotero items. Otherwise no.

Evernote and Zotero are two useful tools for library clients (and your own use), each with a slightly different function:

• Evernote is a cloud based tool for note taking, organising and archiving information (including photos and sound recordings) which allows the user to create tags and to arrange information into notebooks. Evernote also allows you to easily share information with others and syncs across platforms. It is quite powerful and can search for text even in images (eg. photos of slides).

• Zotero provides support to researchers and library clients in collecting, organizing and citing sources with the added benefits of synchronizing and collaborating. It is an alternative to Endnote and Mendeley. Although Zotero doesn’t have an official app available for mobile devices, it is quite mobile-friendly if you go to your Zotero website via your mobile browser. There are several third party solutions available for Android and iOS.

THINKING POINTS:

• Do you offer Libguides or other guides to using these types of tools for your clients?
• Evernote has an API, what types of services could be developed for library clients?
• Could library staff offering ‘roving reference’ services from a mobile app use Evernote to compile information for a client and share the notebook with them or send the files via email?
• You can send Tweets and DMs to Evernote by including @myEN in your tweet. Could you use this to capture useful ‘to do’ notes or as part of a workflow capturing tweets for business records?
• You can share an Evernote file, perhaps this could be an alternative to sharing a Google doc for team note taking or other activities?
• People often say they are too busy doing library work to research and write about it … would using Zotero to capture references and Evernote to clip websites, store photos and sound recordings make it easier to research and write ‘in the field’?
• How could you use the combination of IFTTT and Evernote?
