Searching Online Library Catalogues
Hi,
Absolute novice here, with what, undoubtedly, will turn out to be a really silly question. So, apologies in advance.
I'm looking into Zotero as a favour for a friend (who's using it, among other things, for a PhD bibliography. So I've only been using it for a week or so.
When I first started, I populated a test collection with items from various university library (online) catalogues. But now, I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how I did it. (I remember it seeming very simple at the time, but not so anymore).
I recall numerous libraries around the world, including Sydney & Newcastle Universities in Australia. I searched on a subject ("scuba" for example) then added all references from each catalogue so that I had a collection that I could test.
Can anyone give me a quick "heads-up" on how this is done to refresh my memory please.
Thanks in advance,
Paul.

I was having a "blonde" moment, as they say. I made those searches in EndNote, then imported to Zotero to test the file transfer functionality. It's all good!
BUT, if there's some way to do the same in Zotero, I'd still like to know.
Thanks,
Paul.
