Importing Zotero references from Word

Hi,

I had used Zotero to write a paper with 400+ reference. Unfortunately, my computer died right at the end and I had to replace it. I still have the word document with the entire Zotero-generate bibliography and all of the in-text citations but I don't have my Zotero library anymore. Is there anyway to take those references from Word and put them back into my Zotero library so that I can continue updating my references on the document?

I'm pretty terrible with computers but can typically figure things with detailed instructions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much
  • There typically is a way, but it's fairly involved, so I'd want to make sure that there is no other backup of your Zotero library so
    1) Do you have a backup of your old harddisk?
    2) When you click on "My Library" at the top of this page, do you see your (old, complete) Zotero library?
