Upgrade StorageMendeley to Zotero - can I import just part of my Mendeley library?
Hello to the Zotero community,
I use Zotero for my own research and I also have a large Mendeley online library for research I have done for other people. I would like to transfer just one collection from my Mendeley Reference Manager account to my Zotero library. Does Zotero’s built-in tool for importing from Mendeley allow me to select a single collection to import?
The documentation and forum discussion don’t mention if the user can select part of the library for the Zotero import process. So I would like to know about my options as I don’t want to accidentally import thousands of items when I only want 77 of them. Thanks for your advice.

dstillman Zotero TeamNo, sorry. If you only want a few items, you could export via BibTeX or RIS — it just won't be as complete of a transfer. Or you could import everything and then delete what you don't want.
