It stores citations in Firefox, runs whenever your browser is running and allows you to import citations by clicking on an icon in your browser address bar that appears automatically whenever a web page contains citations. Zotero works with all major catalogs and databases, and is a free, open source product. Recently Zotero.org launched a service by which you can create an account to synchronize your citation library across multiple computers.
