Also note that dragging your personal collection to the Zotero group will not include the media and other files attached to the entries in your My Library collection. If you want them included in the Zotero group collection as well, you'll have to individually attach those materials online, which can go over the free Zotero.org space limit.
 ===== Photographs ===== ===== Photographs =====
 Currently Zotero doesn't have a separate category for photographs. In the meantime, use the "Artwork" item type for a photo. "Title" is not the same as filename. "Abstract" can be used for a description of the work, size for photo resolution (use px or pixels as unit), date for when the photograph was taken, and Extra for geolocation (use an app to get this info, if it's not available already in your camera). Make use of Tags and Notes as well. Currently Zotero doesn't have a separate category for photographs. In the meantime, use the "Artwork" item type for a photo. "Title" is not the same as filename.

 +In this use case, Zotero primarily manages the metadata; Resilio Sync provides backup with your team. This is by no means the only approach to digital archiving, but cost (in this case, practically zero) is of prime consideration.
