Hi Friends, my name is Callum aka wanderloots. In this video, I walk through how to use Zotero & connect it to Obsidian and the AI research tool Research Rabbit. This is the best workflow I've found to keep track of PDFs & websites for all kinds of research (casual & academic research). Zotero is a reference manager that allows you to effortlessly save PDFs and other resources from the Internet and store them in the cloud as a library. Your library can be synced to Obsidian so you can annotate & highlight your documents in Zotero and seamlessly import them to Obsidian. This same Zotero library can be synced with Research Rabbit, the "Spotify" for research papers, helping you make connections, find similar work, and generally speed up & deepen your academic workflow. Research Rabbit uses AI to find similar papers to help augment your research, finding connections for you in seconds. This video is a complete tutorial on how to get started with Zotero, integrate it with Obsidian (including how to template specifically for importing files & metadata), and extend your research with Research Rabbit AI. I hope you enjoy! ✨ P.S.

Transforming Academic Search: Insights from Librarians on AI & Large Language Models On December 12, 2024, the Chinese American Librarians Association(CALA) Asia Pacific Chapter hosted the fifth webinar in 2024, exploring the transformative impact of AI and large language models (LLMs) on academic search. Renowned librarian and AI enthusiast, Aaron Tay, Head of Data Services at Singapore Management University Libraries, delivered a compelling presentation that shed light on the evolving landscape of academic research and the crucial role of AI tools. Aaron discussed two major categories of AI tools: citation-based literature mapping tools (e.g., Connected Papers, ResearchRabbit) and LLMs (e.g., GPT models). He highlighted the potential of these tools to revolutionize the way researchers discover and access information, offering enhanced search capabilities, direct answer generation, and data synthesis.
