import from .csv file

I would like import all articles from our institutional journal to the Zotero. Is any way to directly or easy import items from CSV or Excel sheet to Zotero library?

Nothing super easy. Especially if all entries are of the same type, you can use excel to concatenate each line to a bibtex entry and then import that. There's a thread describing that option on the forums.

Thanks, on the end I used the RIS format. I added before each item correct tag and ER tag on the end in MS Excel. And then I copy plain text to the free PSPad editor; there I used bulk editing (Find and replace; Text to HTML; reformat HTML; remove HTML tags). Finally, it was not so labor intensive.
