TEI BiblStruct into Zotero

kenthooper · April 30, 2009

I used oXygen for the Mac to create an xml bibliographical listing according to the TEI standars, more specifically the BiblStruct section of the standards. Is there no converter from TEI into Zotero?

As far as I know there is no converter. I would suggest trying to convert your BiblStruct file into one of the common interchange formats Zotero can injest, something like BibTex, or RIS, or MODS, but as this thread is the top google hit for the term "BiblStruct converter" I am not particularly optimistic that any such converters exist.

You probably need to look for an XSLT stylesheet that convert TEI to MODS. It might exist.

Back to the original topic (2 years later). I noticed that very little has been said in these forums about TEI. Being in the middle of a TEI-customization project, I thought it worthwhile to start a bridge between TEI and Zotero. I encourage Zotero users and developers to comment on a new wiki page explaining why TEI and Zotero don't sync right now, and prospects for the future.

I look forward to the description, and to overcoming whatever stands in the way.

As I suggested earlier in the thread, writing an XSLT to convert between MODS and TEI shouldn't be hard. Has anyone asking for this support even bothered to look if there is one, ask on relevant TEI and/or MODS listservs, etc.?
