Or follow this link: ResearchRabbit

When you first enter the ResearchRabbit citation tracking screen you will be greeted with this view.

One of the main features of this screen is the menu pane on the left hand side where you can control, edit, and view the categories and collections you create.

From this menu you can create categories which can hold multiple collections.

To add a category simply click the button 'New Category' in the left hand menu and name your category.

Note: While categories are not essential to start citation tracking (collections can exist in the 'Uncategorized' section in the menu) categories can help organise and sort different citation tracking collections.
