Best solution for Journal issue as a single unit
Greetings,
I am wondering what people have done for citing or adding a whole journal issue as a single PDF to Zotero. I have thought about adding a whole issue as a Book, but there is no metadata field for "issue number" on a book's metadata. Any suggestions welcome.

One option is to store it as a journal article, with the different metadata. This seems to work usually. Depending on the details another option is as a book, but that doesn't have all the options, as you noticed.
