    Just another nice resource for books: http://isbndb.com/
  1.  
    Is there a generic tweak that Voyager libraries can make to get the download book icon in the location window (like LoC)? I have noticed multiple Voyager libraries agreeing that there OPAC display does not show the icon. Ours does not either.

    Thanks.

    LexisNexis at lexis.com: the point of access for legal materials.

    In general, I'm glad to see so much current development around legal research: Bluebook export, discussion of Westlaw support. However, I haven't seen any recent discussion of support for LexisNexis legal (as opposed to academic)--is that forthcoming?

    I would like to simply suggest adding support for as many online news sites as possible, especially since a main benefit of zotero is doing one's research via the web browser. So, for me, a few that come to mind are BBC.com, www.iht.com, or www.time.com. If these could all work like the translator for the NY Times, that would be fantastic!
  2.  
    I second the request for news sites.

    Also IMDb/IMDbPro - a premier source for film research
  3.  
    I would also like to suggest a change to the gathering of DVD data from Amazon. Amazon has the annoying habit of listing actors as the creators of a film, but for research purposes I need director first. If I add a director manually, I need to delete all the actors so that director comes first, which is irritating. Or is there some way of reordering the various contributors in Zotero?

    A translator I would like to see is one for PICA's Dutch Union catalogue ('Picarta' )
    http://picarta.nl/LNG=EN/DB=2.41/
    Especially because Picarta offers an interface to all libraries in the Netherlands.

    Instead of your staff working forever on styles, why not an import facility for styles in EndNote or other such software? I've spent a considerable amount of time developing an EndNote style that meets my department's particular mandated style for undergraduate work.

    China:
    http://china.eastview.com/kns50/single_index.aspx (esp the first link to China Academic Journals Full-text Database)

    Japan:
    NACSIS Webcat (apparently searches all libraries and universities in Japan) http://webcat.nii.ac.jp/

    Here are two sites I would like to see supported.

    http://www.atla.com/atlahome.html
    http://librarything.com

    The first is a subscription service for accessing journals through the American Theological Library Association.

    The second is where I store all of the bibliographical information from my personal library.

    Sean,

    You said "ATLA is already supported through OVID"

    On March 19, Scot said "I can use ATLA through EBSCOhost with somewhat better success."

    I have subscribed to ATLA (actually, ATLAS) through their website. How do I access their database through these other sites?

    Thanks!

    ADLIB XML:

    Not least because it's used by the RHS Bibliography that I mentioned earlier:

    http://www.rhs.ac.uk/bibl/

    EDIT: I was working on this myself and made some progress but gave up because Adlib XML isn't as detailed as MODS, and the RHS don't seem to have applied it consistently.

    My wishlist:

    Public Library of Science (PlOS, http://www.plos.org/)

    Keep up the great work ...

    Thanks for BioMed Central!

    Another request for
    Pubmed Central, since it doesn't work using the Biomed Central scraper.
    Pubmed Central is probably the most important repository/journal site for biomedical researchers that is not yet covered by Zotero.

    So as Johannes states above BioMed Central and PubMed are separate, but as I wrote earlier they do have a working relationship with each other. (See http://www.biomedcentral.com/info/about/faq?name=pubmed). But again, a scraper for Pubmed Central would be very useful as Pubmed Central includes many important biomedical journals.

    Project Muse (http://muse.jhu.edu) carries a bunch of history and humanities journals; I'd love to see it supported.

    (Edit: Project Muse is supported currently, but my university uses a proxy-server-based system which renames it to muse.jhu.edu.resources.library.my.university.domain for offcampus access, and Zotero seems not to pick up any of the metadata, at least from articles on the journal GLQ. How does Zotero work with references of this format?)
