Creator type = illustrator

Is it possible yet to include "Illustrator" as a content identifier? I am looking for something that will produce:

Crimi, C. (2019). Weird little robots (C. Luyken, Illus.). Candlewick Press.
  • And what would be an example style which would accept it?

    The CSL variable already exists, but not yet in Zotero. So you can enter it into the extra field like so:
    illustrator: illustrator: C. Luyken
    Publisher: Candlewick Press
    And then you'll most likely need to build it into your citation style. I doubt many styles have illustrator in coded into it.
    E.g.
    <names variable="illustrator">
    <name and="symbol" initialize-with=". " delimiter=", "/>
    <label form="short" prefix=", " text-case="capitalize-first"/>
    </names>


    We can help more specifically if you tell us what citation style you use.

    Here's a list of styles that use it:

  • That should be:
    Illustrator: Luyken||Corinna
    in the extra field. The publisher doesn't need to be in the extra field because this is a book so you have the field in Zotero.
    See https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/item_types_and_fields#citing_fields_from_extra for more on data entry of unavailable variables
  • Thanks!!

    Was planning to use it with Oxford studies on the roman economy style.
