Firefox Scholar becomes Zotero Do you remember the software from George Mason University with the working name Firefox Scholar? It's been renamed Zotero and the public beta is expected to be released this fall. From the site: Zotero...
Comment. Zotero's ability to extract citation information from a web page could automate the collection of metadata and lower the already-low hurdle to self-archiving.
