# Obsidian-Zotero Guide

A skill for integrating Zotero reference management with Obsidian note-taking to create a seamless academic knowledge management workflow. Based on the obsidian-zotero-integration plugin (2K stars), this skill guides the agent through setting up, configuring, and optimizing the bridge between your reference library and your personal knowledge base.

## Overview

Academic researchers accumulate hundreds or thousands of papers over a career, each containing insights that need to be connected, synthesized, and retrieved when writing new work. Zotero excels at organizing references and PDFs, while Obsidian excels at creating interlinked notes and building knowledge graphs. This integration bridges the two, allowing annotations made in Zotero to flow into Obsidian as linked notes, and enabling citation insertion directly from the Obsidian editor.

The result is a unified research workflow where reading, annotating, note-taking, and writing happen in a connected ecosystem rather than in isolated tools.

## Setup and Configuration

**Prerequisites**
- Zotero 6 or 7 with the Better BibTeX plugin installed
