How to retrieve call numbers from items

tesolchina · July 10, 2016

Suppose I have a collection of bibliographic items of books in my Zotero library. I would like to gather all the call numbers of the books. I wonder in which format(s) I could export the data so I can retrieve the call numbers of the books.

Many thanks.

There are various options. The two that I'd suggest is
1. Export to csv (right-click collection --> Export --> CSV)
If you open the file in Excel, you can find the callNumber in a column

2. Use a citation style that includes the Call Number. Afaik, this one is the only such style on the repository: https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id%3Achicago-library-list
