Zotero->Multi-clienting

Aaron_Qian · July 18, 2022

I AM so curious on whether Zotero can support multi-clienting or not on MacOS. Zotero is not fluent if there is 500+ literatures. So I want to split it into two part: one is for work, and the other is for study. Thank for coming suggestions.

You can, but we don't particularly recommend it:

Zotero is not fluent if there is 500+ literatures.

If you mean 500+ items in a library, that's absurd — people have tens of thousands of items in their libraries without any trouble. (Some people have 100s of thousands, though that's pushing things.)
