Upgrade StorageSirsi and RIBA library catalogue
I am attempting to use Zotero to download results from the UK RIBA catalogue
http://riba.sirsidynix.net.uk/uhtbin/cgisirsi/?ps=k3HynTBABa/MAIN_CAT/289940014/38/1/X/BLASTOFF
It works to some extent and correctly picks titles. However all of the most useful information (Date, journal etc) ends up in an "Authors statement" element that appears as a separate part of the main entry in Zotero.
I cannot immediately see how to get this to populate the fields in the main entry and thus follow through into other documents.
When I make a bibliography from one of these entries I do get most of the information but again most significantly not the date.
Am I missing something in how I have Zotero set up or is this a problem with the RIBA data having been prepared in a particular form. Would some amendments to the translator help?
Thanks for any help
Regards
Paul

Library catalogs are not actually designed very well for displaying journal articles, which is why this isn't working well. I can take a look but it won't happen very soon.
(@aurimas or zuphilip if you're looking at this, any search like "test" will get you to relevant search results with journal articles).
