can the zotero connector catch the information of CALIS?

http://opac.calis.edu.cn/opac/simpleSearch.do is the most completed academic website in chinese literature. it has a lot of books which is not recorded by douban.com and cnki.net.

can you add a function of catching the information of CALIS?

The English version of the site is mostly untranslated -- this would be fairly difficult to do for someone who doesn't speak/read Chinese, I'm afraid. I'm happy to try to help someone who does want to take it on. (There also do seem to be a number of obstacles, such as required registration before accessing MARC records, that'd make it challenging even knowing Chinese).

You could research here, see these photos. You don't need to register.

the last thing isn't the MARC record. Click on "MARC" at the top of it and you'll get prompted to log in.

oh, I see. But is the MARC record necessary？I think this translator would be like the Duxiu.js, https://github.com/zotero/translators/pull/2050/files.
But I don't know why we can't use Duxiu.js now, and I am confused and upset. I hope you can solve the problem. Thank you!
