Editors of books not downloading correctly with III/Millennium catalog translator

efilgo
When you download a book from a III/Millennium catalog, it consistently downloads any book editor as a "contributor" which will not cite correctly. I know it's easy to go in and change it, but if a user is not aware that it's a problem in the first place, they won't know to change it.

I have checked this out on other libraries' III catalogs and it seems to be consistent across them, not just on ours. Here's an example:

All the editors are called "contributors" when the record is downloaded.

    Yes, this is a long standing issue that pertains to all MARC import. I've been wanting to fix it for a long time, I'll try to get to it asap.

    Thank you so much! (I've actually been meaning to report this for a long time too...)

    A translator fix is now up. Your version of Zotero will automatically update within 24hs, or you can update manually using the "Update Now" button in the "General" tab of the Zotero preferences.

    thanks for bringing this up again.
