Zotero is a free web and app-based citation manager. You can use Zotero to store citation information, digital copies of articles, and notes on resources. You can also use Zotero to create a reference list or bibliography. Zotero's Microsoft Plug-In allows you to add in-text citations quickly from your stored data and create a corresponding reference list. 

For more information on using Zotero, visit the Zotero Research Guide.

Please note: when using a citation management tool or citation generator, you are still responsible for the correct citation. Please check the citations generated by Zotero.

The APA citation style is used mainly in the social and behavioral sciences, natural sciences, nursing, communications, education, business, engineering, and other fields. Check with your professor to see which edition you should use as both editions are being used.
