It's easy to attach files (like PDFs) to items in your Zotero library.  Just drag the file into your Zotero pane.  Dropping a file onto a collection, or in between library items, will copy it into your library as a standalone item.  Dropping it onto an existing item will attach it to that item.  This is the easiest way to attach a copy of an article to its entry in your library.

Click the Zotero button at the bottom of your browser to open your library.

At the top left is a folder button with a green plus sign.          Click this to create a new "collection." Name the collection for a class or project. Collections can also be shared
