NCBI Bookshelf
Dear Zotero,
I hoped that there was a translator for this, similar to the one for NCBI Pubmed. However there is not.
Instead the DOI translator jumps in and saves an entry from the NCBI "Recent Activity" list.
Just tested here:

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
It should, in theory, be possible to retrieve some metadata using a Book ID, but I'm not aware of how to do it.

Not sure how reliable that is.
As I assume you know, db=books doesn't export full records.
We could try to go the NLM route, though I wonder if there's a wayt o do it without first following the NLM Catalog link to fetch the NLM ID. I haven't explored that option much.
There is for example an "itemscope" <div> with information.
You can update your translators via Preferences -> General -> Update Now
