Engineering Village Problem

dandesanto · August 14, 2017

I see the previous discussion about Engineering Village, but I am currently experiencing a similar problem with Engineering Village. The connector, in both Firefox and Chrome, is only recognizing result sets and records as webpages.

What's the URL you're looking at? Do other sites work?

https://www.engineeringvillage.com/search/quick.url?database=8192

Geobase - IP authenticated. Other sites/databases work just fine. We can download to RIS as a workaround in the meantime.

I noticed this issue last week while helping a colleague. If I right-click the connector icon and select the "Save to Zotero (DOI)" option, it saves as journal article and gets most but not all metadata.

I just tested it for EI Compendex and it is missing Abstract with the DOI option. Example:

The Compendix problem of missing the abstract has existed for a long time. The abstract isn't included in the RIS nor the embedded metadata.
