Little Helpers.

Probably all of us have heard of Zotero, the research tool and bibliography management extension for Firefox. If you haven't already, do check it out. You need to get used to it, but then it's really helpful to get and stay organized.

I found another helpful add-on for Firefox: You can add Google Scholar to the Firefox search bar (upper lefthand corner). That way you can, after selecting the Google Scholar option, simply highlight a term and run a Google Scholar search with a right-click. Pretty convenient.
Haven't found an add-on for our library catalog or the MLA/EBSCO database - yet.

  1. If u find an article in EBSCO you can click "show citation" and from there you click import to referencer (or something) and it sends it directly to zotero!
