The Zotero-OpenOffice plugin provides the facility with OpenOffice Writer to manage references in your Writer documents. It provides four basic functions:

  • Add Citation
  • Edit Citation
  • Zotero Insert Bibliography
  • Refresh - updates your references to any changes in your Zotero collection.
  • Document Preferences - allowing you to change your bibliographic style on the fly

When you would like to cite something from your collection click the first button, “Zotero Insert Citation” (). If this is the first citation you have added to the document the Document Preferences window will open. Chose the bibliographic format you would like to use from the list and click OK.

The Zotero-OpenOffice plugin was Modified by Ian Laurenson under contract to the University of Southern Queensland for OOo Writer.

The macros integrate Microsoft Word (MSWD) or OpenOffice.org (OOo) with Zotero - a Firefox bibliographic extension.

The extension is available from the Zotero site.

The code is written in Python. Details about the coding and packing of OpenOffice extensions is available from the Extensions Wiki pages.
