The Way to Import the Journal Abbreviation Lists?
Hi,
Since there are lots of conventions of Journal abbreviations for different citation styles, we can use "term lists" in EndNote to manage journal abbreviations for ease. However, when I use Zotero, I find that the journal abbreviation item is not shown in exported RIS files. Does Zotero provide a method to import journal abbreviation lists just like what we do in EndNote? Thanks.

but it's still rudimentary and I don't think there are any lists ready for upload.
In the directions for references in author instructions for some journals, they request that the journals be listed as "abbreviated in the World List of Scientific Periodicals". Is there a way to import this list? I haven't tried them all, but so far, I cannot find any that fit the journal to which I would like to submit-- Equine Veterinary Journal.

but this is all currently experimental, so if you don't feel like experimenting you'll have to live w/o that feature at this time. On the other hand, the more people play around/work with this, the faster we'll get this into something usable by the general public.
