Old references/bibliographies

Hello - Having just started using Zotero, I have a basic - and quite possibly stupid - question.

Is there any way references from old bibliographies can be entered into Zotero other than manually?

Having compiled bibliographies manually for the past ten years, I have a huge body of references that I draw on regularly in my papers, and it would be great to have these in Zotero. However, the job of entering them manually threatens to be exceedingly time-consuming ...

Thanks for tips!

    for me, the last one works best. That said, the quality of parsed bibliographic data is always limited, so you might be better of doing this by looking them up in catalogs manually.

    If your old bibliographies have DOIs, that'd change things & make it easier, since you can just import via those.
