Q. How do I use Library Lookup in Zotero?

What is Library Lookup?

• Zotero's Library Lookup feature will search to see if we have access to one of your saved citations in our University of Memphis library collections.
• If the source is not in our collection, Library Lookup will automatically redirect you to interlibrary loan to get a copy.
• Library Lookup only works in the Zotero desktop app.

How do I use Library Lookup?

1. Select a citation in your Zotero library.
