Changing the 'accessed' for online citations

anisha.netto · September 30, 2021

Hi there! I use MHRA and when there's an online source, there's the bracketed (accessed dd Month yyyy) that follows. I would like to make a small personal, stylistic change and have zotero autogenerate (consulted on dd Month yyyy) instead. How do I go about it?

Thanks a lot!

You would need to edit the CSL style file. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/citation-style-language/styles/6152ccea8b7d7a472910d36524d1bf3557a83bfc/modern-humanities-research-association-author-date.csl

Add this line to the “en” locale section near the top:
<term name="accessed">consulted on</term>

Then change the style title and id at the top of the style, save, and install in Zotero
