Insert a bibliography without having to add a citation first?

Dead1nside

Is there any way to insert a bibliography into a word document (I'm using OpenOffice on Linux if that matters) without first having to insert a citation?

For example, if you only want to make a bibliography for a piece of work that you've written in another document (so there are no citations to make).

I've found that you can do this, but you have to insert a citation first, otherwise Zotero will ask you to do this. You can then delete the citation, and "Edit Bibliography" adding the items you want to appear.

Thank you in advance. I would think that somebody at some time might have wanted to do a similar thing, compiling a new document that just contains a bibliography.

If you're not inserting citations, don't bother with the plugin. Just create a collection for the bibliography in Zotero and drag the items into Word (adjusting your Quick Copy settings if necessary) or use right-click->Create Bibliography from Collection.

Sorry, that was glaringly obvious (and hence why it's not in the word processor plugins). Thanks for pointing it out to me, I'm going to need to use it soon.
