getting started with omni

the lakehead libraries have a full zotero guide available here.

please see in particular our notes about using zotero with the omni system.

regarding electronic journal articles in particular, if you try to save directly to zotero from an omni page, you will usually only get the citation information, and not the full text .pdf.

as stated on our zotero guide, we recommend that you first click directly into the database which actually contains the full-text of the article, before you save to zotero. as an example, on the omni page shown below, first click into either the crkn access, or the scholars portal access, before trying to save to zotero.
