Buenas a todos, les pido disculpa por no escribir en inglés.
Necesito saber cómo puedo instalar el estilo de Turabian 9 en Zotero.
Muchas gracias de ante mano.

Turabian 9 isn't there yet. I suggest you use Chicago manual of style 17th edition until this becomes available.

When will Turabian 9 be available? I'm starting my dissertation, and that is the requirement for my university. I have never used Chicago, so I don't know what the differences are between it and Turabian 9.

According to many claims both should be compatible: http://cmosshoptalk.com/2015/02/03/for-students-is-turabian-style-the-same-as-chicago-style/

https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/help-tools/Resources-for-Students.html

=> "The two books are compatible; both are official Chicago style." (on both pages)

That said, I have set up a testing repository (https://github.com/denismaier/csl-turabian9-fullnote; see also https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/issues/3496); the result was that 13 tests pass, 12 fail, but the failing tests are actually also wrong for CMoS 17, the rules and expected formatting are the same in either case. (So we will have that fix that in CMoS anyway.)

You suggest you just use CMoS for now, and switch to Turabian once that is available.

The most striking difference will be linespacing in the bibliography, but you can also just use styles in your word processor to get the correct results.
