EBSCO, urls & accessed dates
When downloading articles from EBSCO (ATLA) the date accessed and the url does not show up in the fields. It does appear as a child item as part of EBSCO Record, but how can I get this information to automatically be in the main entry so that it will easily be part of the bibliography information?
Also, what is the field to use to record the online collection (ATLA) given that the library catalog field already has 'EBSCOhost'?

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
I'll look into the URL - it's always a bit of a judgment call for larger databases whether to link or to attach the url.
@aurimasv - EBSCO has mostly full text sources, why are we attaching links here instead of using a url?

EBSCO will now put the URL into the URL field, but only for resources where a full text is hosted on EBSCO. This is in line what we do with other catalogs and also the requirements of citationstyles - i.e. you should only link to a citation when that's where you actually get the full text from.
Your version of Zotero will automatically update within 24hs, or you can update manually using the "Update Now" button in the "General" tab of the Zotero preferences.
Any further problems let us know & thanks for reporting
I've also tried it with Zotero for Firefox (I normally use Standalone with Chrome) but I can't even see the icon for downloading files from Ebsco in Firefox (though I can for Amazon, Sage etc.)
