Publisher field in journal article

d1ma5
Hello everyone,

I noticed that the journal article entry does not accept a publisher field! It seems like a very important field, specially for thesis / dissertations where the bibliography is not space constrained (as it is in some conference or even journal articles).

Any plans to include that? It seems not very complicated to do.

    This is planned for the next revision of the Zotero item types: https://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/issues/16

    It would be useful, though, if you could provide documentation for a citation style or journal that requires publisher information for journal articles, so that we have more supporting evidence that this truly is necessary information.

    You know, after looking up I realized my biblatex styles were actually ignoring the publisher field. I think I put them in my previous databases because I had that information available. It's in fact only for conference papers that the publisher field is printed.

    Anyways... it's good that it is planned for the next revision.

    Cheers,

    Hi,

    If you refer to WorldCat, there are many instances of bibliographical entries for Journals including a publisher. Is there still a plan to include an entry for publisher in any future zotero update? Its just that I noticed this discussion is dated 2011 and yet still, the version I downloaded only a few weeks back also excludes publisher details? Thanks

    Still planned--no field updates have made it since 2011 (actually more like since 2008)

    Might this be coming in 2016?
