To merge duplicate references in Zotero reference manager, you can follow these steps:

Open Zotero and locate the duplicate references that you want to merge in your library.

Select the duplicate references by holding down the Ctrl key (or Command key on Mac) and clicking on each duplicate reference.

Right-click on any of the selected references and choose "Merge Items" from the context menu. Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+M (or Command+M on Mac) to merge the selected items.

A dialog box will appear, displaying the information from each duplicate reference side by side. Review the details and select the desired information to keep for each field. You can click on the arrows to switch between the information from the duplicate references.

After reviewing and selecting the desired information, click on the "Merge" button at the bottom of the dialog box to merge the duplicate references into a single reference.

Zotero will merge the selected references, combining the information into a single entry while retaining the attachments and associated notes.

Once the merge is complete, the duplicate references will be replaced by the merged reference in your Zotero library.

It is recommended to review the merged reference to ensure that all necessary information has been retained and no errors have occurred during the merge process. Additionally, it's a good practice to regularly check for and merge duplicate references to maintain a clean and organized Zotero library.
