  • Zotero Better Notes – Knowledge management solution insid}e Zotero

    Yeah, I just stumbled upon this project and wanted to share, I'm currently using Obsidian for my personal wiki, but I use Zotero a lot as a paper repo and reader, the organization and metadata tools are great, and extending it to a more powerful note-taking tool seems like a no-brainer.

    Now it just needs an EPUB reader to replace Calibre, then it'd just be the perfect all-in-one personal library. For now I'm using this plugin that exports and keeps in sync the calibre library to Zotero:

    Very grateful that this open source project stays alive, I've seen attempts over the years from startups and other projects to tackle on spaces like pkm, research, paperless office, to then be abandoned yet Zotero keeps getting updates.

    There's also Tropy, from the same organization that develops Zotero, for organizing digital assets:

    I'm personally a big fan of digitizing as you go, since that is ultimately what is going to make the images the most accessible for you and your family. Even if you aren't going to make high resolution scans, a cell phone image of the photo provides a great opportunity to compile notes and related resources in a more accessible digital format. A resource I can highly recommend is called Tropy (https://tropy.org/), a free program created specifically to assist in organizing and arranging photographs and research notes. You can include granular information such as the box and folder the item is located in, transcriptions and captions for the images, and even tag and link related materials (such as tagging by surname, linking census records, and grouping images together like pages of a photo album or front and back of documents).

    One idea to store pictures of an analog Zettelkasten: Tropy - it's a side project to Zotero. https://tropy.org/

    So if you like an image, save it somewhere together with the prompt. I'm using Lightroom. Tropy is a free option that should be good too.

    For private annotation w.r.t. research, Tropy might be a good tool, although it's desktop only: https://tropy.org/
