Zotero User's LibGuide

If you wish to preserve your folders, you will need to export each folder separately.

To Export from RefWorks:

• View the RefWorks folder that you wish to export.
• Use the Share button at the top navigation bar, and select "Export references" from the dropdown menu.
• For import into Zotero, BibTeX and RIS Format work best.
• Save file

If you do not have separate folders you can export all of your references in one file.

• Make sure you are viewing "All References" to export everything.
• Use the Share button at the top navigation bar, and select "Export references" from the dropdown menu.
• For import into Zotero, BibTeX and RIS Format work best.
• Save file.

Before you think you are finished

• Check if you have any references left in "Not in Folder" that you want to keep. Unless you assign them to a Folder, they won't be imported.

• Make sure that it's intentional if you have duplicate records across multiple folders. If you are not preserving the folders structure, eliminate duplicate references. Under Tools, there is a Find Duplicates search.
