How to Add Items to a Folder

Adding items to your newly created folders is an easy drag and drop process. 

1) Click on the gray box over the citation.

 

 

2) Drag the citation over your desired folder. Notice after we added a citation there are two instead of one. 

 

 

3) If you click on the folder name you will see the citations you added.
