Upgrade StorageCreating citation for a book chapter when you have the book
So this is a frequent problem I encounter. I find a book in my library system and import the citation into Zotero. But if it's an edited volume, usually it's only indexed in my library system as a book, not by the different chapter titles and different authors. If I wanted to cite more than one chapter from an edited volume, I'd have to create my own citations in Zotero. Zotero should have a functionality to import or copy over at least the information that pertains to the book--editor(s), title, place and publisher--so all I would have to add would be chapter title and author and pages. Is it possible to do this now?

If you've the item in your library as a "book" and change the type to "book section", the (book) title is automatically transferred to the Book Title field.
