'Create item from this page'

Is the 'Create item from this page' option in Zotero supposed to work for library catalogues? In other words, if I go to a library catalogue page and then select this option, it creates a Zotero entry for the book itself? If it it supposed to do this, is there a form for reporting ones that don't work? If it isn't supposed to, then no big deal :p (it ain't that hard to type in an author and book title myself!)

"Create item from this page" does not use site translators: the item will be a web page reference with only basic information. Use the icon in your address bar to capture an item from your catalog. If there is no icon in your addressbar, see if you have a supported catalog & ask if you need help troubleshooting or comment if you have a catalog that isn't yet supported and hasn't yet been requested.

Create item from current page is not for library catalogs. It takes a snapshopt of the page and attaches it to webpage item.

With library catalogs you want to use the icon in the location bar.
