Citing a Source Reprinted Within Another Source

army-jag341
I have a book that compiles articles originally printed either in journals or as part of other books, and I would like your thoughts as to how to reference it in Zotero properly. I could not find this question anywhere within the forum, so here it is. Thank you!

    I'd include it as a book section with information as it appears in the book and then original-date: 1949 (or whatever it is) for the original date of publication. If you do want to cite the full original citation, that can't be done in Zotero.

    Do you think it would be possible to use the following format manually adding "Rpt. in": original citation (from Zotero). Rpt. in new citation (from Zotero)

    I guess I am trying to avoid having to go back and keep track of these types of situations... Thoughts?

    Yeah, that'd absolutely work. I think traditionally it would not be customary to include the original version, which you presumably don't have, in a reference list/bibliography, but you can cite it and style guides are somewhat flexible on this.
