Journal Abbreviations: What to do with journals that have no abbreviation in the NLM Catalog?
Hello! I am helping my team to get our Zotero up to date with all the proper abbreviations we need from the NLM Catalog. However, there are some journals that do not have abbreviations listed there, meaning we would want the normal, full journal title to populate in our reference lists instead for those journals.
If we leave the journal abbreviation field blank for those journals that do not have NLM abbreviations, will Zotero automatically enter in the normal title if it is listed in the Journal Title field in the metadata, or do we need to also enter in the full title of these journals into the Journal Abbrev. field so that it populates correctly? Any advice here would be much appreciated. Thank you!
