> +Pkg-Description: reference manager software
> + Zotero is an easy-to-use yet powerful research tool that helps you
> + gather, organize, and analyze sources (citations, full texts, web
> + pages, images, and other objects), and lets you share the results of
> + your research in a variety of ways. An extension to the popular
> + open-source web browser Firefox, Zotero includes the best parts of
> + older reference manager software (like EndNote)—the ability to store
> + author, title, and publication fields and to export that information
> + as formatted references—and the best parts of modern software and web
> + applications (like iTunes and del.icio.us), such as the ability to
> + interact, tag, and search in advanced ways. Zotero integrates tightly
> + with online resources; it can sense when users are viewing a book,
> + article, or other object on the web, and—on many major research and
> + library sites—find and automatically save the full reference
> + information for the item in the correct fields. Since it lives in the
> + web browser, it can effortlessly transmit information to, and receive
> + information from, other web services and applications; since it runs
> + on one’s personal computer, it can also communicate with software
> + running there (such as Microsoft Word). And it can be used offline as
> + well (e.g., on a plane, in an archive without WiFi).
