Installing Zotero without root access?

stephtdouglas

Hello,

I'm about to get a new work computer on which I won't have root access. I'm hoping to be able to continue to use Zotero on that computer - is it possible to install Zotero and extensions on a linux system without using root access anywhere?

Thanks,
Stephanie

Yes. Zotero for Linux is distributed as a tarball containing an executable, which you can put anywhere (as long as your home directory isn't noexec).
