Export abbreviations list?

megabert
I hope I’m not overlooking an existing thread but: is it possible to generate a list of abbreviations of all cited journals? I use the NeoOffice plug-in?

Thanks!

    I dont' think so, no. What do you need this for? There might be a workaround, but would be helpful to see what you need more exactly.

    Basically just a list of all my cited items that have anything written in their ‘journal abbr’ field. It would have to be just like

    JBL Journal of Biblical Literature
    NTS Neutestamentliche Studien
    VD Verbum Domini
    ...

    Any ideas? If the list looks different and I have to edit out a few other things / fields / parameters that’s no problem / still helpful.

    You could get a list of all journals and abbreviations from Zotero by:
    1. Add column Journal Abbr. in center pane and sort by it
    2. Select only items with journal abbreviations
    3. Export to CSV
    4. Delete unneeded columns and duplicates

    But there is no way to do this just for items in the document at this point.

    That’s a good idea and quite doable for my project for now - thanks!
