The main objective of this training is to understand the fundamentals of the Zotero bibliographic reference management tool and to be introduced to its main functionalities.
At the end of this training, the participants will be able to start managing their own references' library on Zotero 7 (Standalone).

This event is aimed at PhD researchers, postdoctoral fellows and faculty.
During this online session you will learn how to make the most of the numerous libraries in Florence and surrounding areas. This training will not merely list libraries, but it will equip you with tools to search and find resources that might be around the corner from the EUI.

From international libraries to university libraries, from public libraries to historical libraries, from specialised libraries to media libraries, Florence has much to offer between books and databases. 

Learn how to use the citation manager software RefWorks to save time and prepare the perfect bibliography.

• show examples of how to use AI tools for academic research.
• compare AI search systems with traditional search systems.
• raise awareness about the risks, including issues of plagiarism and academic integrity, and adherence to AI guidelines.
• practice with the AI search tools Perplexity, Semantic Scholar, and SciSpace.
• strengthen your AI literacy.
