Omeka help

monicab · November 9, 2022

hi: I am confused about which versions of Omeka allow synchronization with Zotero: I want one of my Zotero libraries to feed either via RSS or an API into Omeka. If that is not possible, which versions of Omeka easily allow importing of Zotero. I know Omeka Classic probably can import Zotero metadata but it requires installation on a server.

Both Omeka Classic and Omeka S have add-ons that allow you to import from Zotero.
- Omeka Classic: https://omeka.org/classic/plugins/ZoteroImport/
- Omeka S: https://omeka.org/s/modules/ZoteroImport/

thanks Jim. I had trialed OmekaNet. I am thinking about applying for a grant that will including hosting fees. Do you have any understanding of how the two versions differ?

There are quite a few differences and similarities. I think the people over at the Omeka forums will be happy to help you out in more detail.

thanks Jim. I have since learned that Omeka S allows for different metadata schema and Omeka Classic is only Dublin Core so I think I'll try to use S.
