We’d like to invite you for a workshop on making your literature review process simpler and faster!

For literature storage, we’ll discuss the use of Zotero (with additional plugins) to go beyond Mendeley’s capabilities. Next, we’ll show how the app Obsidian helps you take notes on the sources you stored in Zotero. Of course, we will be there to help you install and set up both tools so you can immediately put them to use when the workshop’s over.
