  It looks like you might have students work in groups to create collections in Hathi Trust that they might annotate as a set of resources for a particular research project. We could use Zotero this way as well. That way, the pool of resources would be greater. Perhaps the way to "annotate" is to tag the items. Is there a way to share "collections" in Zotero with groups of people?...

  One application that comes to mind for the coding side of my job is the use of Zotero or another citation manager to reference web pages that contain code snippets, hints or anything of value, to share with others in my group. If you can't figure out how to code for some specific task, you can often find hints or fully-implemented code out there already, but sorting through the cruft of the web is difficult, and without a better citation (or storage & tagging) mechanism than browser bookmarks, it can become difficult to manage what's been found and share with...
