Upgrade StorageEnsuring zotero compatibility for my site
Hi,
I'm designing a website for a publisher that will be putting many of its books online, and I'd like to make sure that zotero sees each book's page properly and grabs the proper metadata so students & scholars can cite the book properly. I looked on the "For Developers" section and couldn't find documentation about preparing a site for zotero compatibility. I understand zotero does a good job of sniffing out metadata and that translators can be written, but I'd prefer not to risk zotero sniffing incorrectly or force someone to write a specific translator for my site -- I'd rather instead to make my site compatible from the get go.
Any tips? Thanks!
Joe

COinS is very easy to implement, but somewhat limited (with regard to Zotero integration). unAPI is much more powerful and flexible, but takes a bit more implementation work, but it shouldn't be too difficult for a web developer to get it working. You may also want to search the Zotero forums for threads about COinS and unAPI.
