Add citations by clicking the zotero 
icon in your URL bar that appears whenever Zotero recognizes a reference – whether you’re looking at a library catalog, a database, or another website. The icon changes depending on the kind of record: e.g., book, newspaper, journal article, or list of references.
Don't see an icon? The Chrome doesn't display plugins until you "pin" them. Just click the puzzle-piece to the right of the url bar, and in the drop-down, click the pushpin icon next to "zotero."
