  • Family History Library at http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/FHLC/frameset_fhlc.asp
  • Library Thing at http://www.librarything.com/
  • edited May 17, 2007
    thirding http://librarything.com

    and http://ssrn.com please!
  • The Internet Movie Database (IMDb)
    at http://www.imdb.com/ please!
  • The University of California's melvyl library database:
    http://melvyl.cdlib.org:80/
  • This is such a great piece of software. You could greatly increase the number of potential users and include a hole bunch of engineers, if you would include publicly accessible patent databases like

    Espacenet
    http://ep.espacenet.com/

    and

    USPTO
    http://www.uspto.gov/patft/index.html

    (Espacenet is sufficient for most purposes)
  • I forgot to mention:
    http://www.google.com/patents
  • Center for Research Libraries Catalog (including separate special collection databases):

    http://www.crl.edu
  • Early English Books Online
  • I echo mccaskey's request for EEBO and raise him ECCO (eighteenth-century collections online).
  • I add my vote for http://librarything.com
  • I would second the vote for Google Patents (http://www.google.com/patents) if anyone is still counting votes. Google makes a great patent search tool here, and the easy pdf download of patents is excellent, but a another tool is desperately needed to keep track of patent prior art research by project, and Zotero would be a rather slick way to get this done.
  • www.sciencedirect.com
  • The first poster mentioned politicalscience.org. This is run by all academic, inc., which also runs the conference archives for several political science and international relations conferences (and possibly quite a few others). Adding All Academic, Inc. would be fantastic.

    Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin (http://www.stabikat.de) and Deutsche Nationalbibliothek (http://dispatch.opac.d-nb.de/DB=4.1/)
  • http://opac.dainst.org/F?RN=598859157

    This is one of the largest bibliographical archaeological and philological databases.
  • I would like to see the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, e.g.
    http://www.jaacap.com/pt/re/jaacap/abstract.00004583-200801000-00009.htm
  • Emergency Medicine Journal - http://emj.bmj.com/
    Thanks
  • Bibliothèque et Archives Nationales du Québec

    http://www.banq.qc.ca/portal/dt/accueil.jsp?bnq_resolution=mode_1280

    Thanks!
  • Please please please - I know this has been requested before, but a translator the European Patent Office website would be fabulous (ep.espacenet.com) - covers US, Europe, most o fteh workd etc and largely free to use, so would be a translator of benefit to many!
  • The Internet Archive Texts, http://www.archive.org/details/texts. A competitor of Google Books. This would be great!
  • I'll second the request by toruser34 for a translator for the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin (http://www.stabikat.de) and Deutsche Nationalbibliothek (http://dispatch.opac.d-nb.de/DB=4.1/). Esp. the latter one would be highly appreciated, as they receive a copy of every book printed in Germany(thus saving a lot of typing if bibliographing lesser known works)
  • toruser35 and andy1983 are right: d-nb.de *really* should work with Zotero. That would be great!
  • "Michael" is a way to explore the European digital cultural heritage

    Through the multilingual MICHAEL service you can find and explore digital collections from museums, archives, libraries and other cultural institutions from across Europe. Whether you are interested in art or archaeology, family history or planning holidays, the Romans or modern History, MICHAEL can show you what is available.

    It's a huge database very usefull for all numeric documents in Europe

    Thanks,
  • Sorry, I forgot the address of Michael

    http://www.michael-culture.org/en/home

    Thanks!
  • British Library Direct
    http://direct.bl.uk

    This appears to be a more useful/extensive index than the British Library Integrated Catalogue (http://catalogue.bl.uk), which Zotero already supports.
  • There are a large set of journals in the Lippincott site (http://Lwwonline.com) for which the abstracts do not seem to be supported by Zotero. I regularly use Journal of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics, and the Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry.
  • HeinOnline: http://heinonline.org
    Westlaw: http://westlaw.com

    Both of these sites host a large number of law journals in their databases.
  • Cairn

    http://www.cairn.info/accueil.php?PG=START
  • Second the request for HeinOnline; it gives an error now. Also:

    It would be nice to see a specialized grabber for the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. (Eg: http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/democracy/ ) ... while it correctly picks up Author and Title, it sees it as merely a webpage rather than an encyclopedia entry, and thus the citations it generates are off.

    The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy (eg: http://www.iep.utm.edu/a/agamben.htm) is another peer-reviewed encyclopedia that would be good to have a translator for; here Zotero doesn't grab it at all. Same with Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy (eg: http://www.rep.routledge.com/article/A088 ).

    Thanks!!
