How to make Zotero add-in search in a specific library, not all of the libraries?

kmohammadi

Hi. I am using Zotero add-in in word. I create one library for each of my manuscripts and put all of the references related to that manuscript in that folder. When I insert citation and I search a paper in Zotero toolbar, it searches the entire libraries. I want Zotero to search in a specific library for each word file. Can anyone tell me how to associate each word file with a specific Zotero library?

The best approach currently is to click on the Z icon in the left of the citation window and choose Show Classic View, then you can browse to a specific library or collection/folder to select items.

@dstillman Following up on recent discussions for updates to the word processor add-in interface, an option to restrict searches to specific libraries in the Z dropdown menu in the Quick Cite window might be nice (especially for ensuring items are cited from the group library for a shared document).
