Explanation: The content of the Research + Activism Bibliography is kept as a group library in the Zotero bibliography manager, and then pulled into this WordPress site through the ZotPress plug-in. Showing the bibliography on our WordPress site allows us to organize and narrate tagged categories to create what amounts to a conceptual map. But search capabilities are simpler. More advanced searching is available through direct online access to our Zotero bibliogaphy (but Zotero's own interface does not allow us to organize and narrate our tags).
For more advanced and granular search by author, title, year, and tag (with abstracts available), use the online interface of the Zotero group library holding our content. Click on "Go to Arrow to right, black Zotero"
