how to create bibliography from items in library

sherinaL
I need urgent help as I need to add my references ASAP and submit my article. I have all the resources used for my article added as PDFs (from my Mac desktop folder where I originally saved the papers before learning how to use zotero) to my zotero library. I cannot seem to create a biblio from these items. When I right click on the selected items, I do not get the option to do that. All I get is 'reload page, back,..' etc. I know I come across as a complete dino, but Please help!

    Also, how do I get zotero to appear on my pubmed searches, so that I can add articles from pubmed to my zotero library?

    Are you using the application (installed on your computer), or only the website? These things will be much easier to do with the application.

    Hi djross, thanks for your response. I was indeed not using the app earlier. Was able to create a biblio and save the list to my desktop folder, but still don't know how to use zotero within Word to add a citation like I was able to with Write-n-Cite with Refworks. I guess I'll have to ask someone to show me how to do it.

    There are tutorials and information online, including on this website:
    https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_integration

    If you just want to create a bibliography of all of your items in a collection, you can export that from directly within Zotero. If you want to do some more with specific items in a document, you can use Word.
