Deleting references in mass

ptrivedi1
Hello-

Is there any way to delete multiple reference that are in my library but NOT in my collections. For a project that is now complete, I imported quite a number of references into my library from database searches to sort through manually, and I no longer need them. I only wanted to save the references that are in my collections.

thanks,
pamala

    you have an "Unfiled items" folder at the bottom left of Zotero - it contains all items not in a collection. You can select multiple (shift+click) or all (ctrl+a) items in that collection and the move them to the trash (right click --> move items to trash)

    Hello Adam,
    I have a question not so far from Pamala's one. I would like to find the "unfiled items" in a group library. Is it possible?

    Many thanks for your help.

    Yes. Right click on the group library --> Show Unfiled items.
