This tab includes an overview of creating annotated bibliographies from your references.
The instructions in this guide apply to version 7 of Zotero and Word 2016.
1. Download the .csl files in the left panel of this window to your desktop. Double-click and select Install.
2. Open Zotero. Enter your personal annotations in the "Extra" field in the third panel in Zotero. There is no limit to the amount of characters in this field for use, though if you sync with an online Zotero account it will cut off after 64k of text (several thousand characters).
3. Highlight the citations you wish to have in your annotated bibliography.
4. Right-click on the highlighted citations and select "Create Bibliography from Items."
5. Select the annotated citation style desired (making sure it has "Annotated" by it), then click the radio button Save as RTF.
6. Click OK, name the file, and save it to your computer as an RTF, as shown.
7. Open the document in Word, and voila. Annotated bibliography. Edit out unnecessary paragraph marks, as they may create spaces between annotations.
Use the "Save as RTF" function to create a stand-alone annotated bibliography. Using drag-and-drop or "Copy to Clipboard" options may result in an annotated bibliography with improper indentations.
