Zotero User Guide: 9. Adding Citation Styles

Adding additional styles to Zotero

Zotero comes with all the most common citation styles, but many more are available to download.

To install a style:

  1. Open Zotero
  2. Go to the Zotero Style Repository page
  3. Search for the name of the style you need
  4. Click the name
  5. It should ask if you want to add the style to Zotero; click yes
  6. If it doesn't, just download the style, open the .csl file, and when Zotero asks click "install"

The new style will appear in Zotero's style lists.
