38,000 includes parent items and child attachments and notes—i.e., if you press the + (plus) key in the items list (which might take a while) and Select All and then look in the right-hand pane.
And I'm referring to the group library here. You have about 4,100 items in your personal library. hari6187 has 34,500. The group that you're both in has 37,700.
read closely above: 38,000 items refers to everything that you can click on in Zotero's middle panel - i.e. each note, each attachment counts as a separate item - i.e. a reference with a snapshot, a pdf, and a note attached would be 4 items.
Ah, ok. We imported most references from Scopus in RIS format, which includes a lot of notes. I guess the large size of the database is due to the abstracts and reference lists found in the notes.
Hi, I have a few pdfs with some metadata that I am trying to sync. This is my first time syncing. It has been nearly 2 h of what appears to be syncing activity. (The green arrow is going in a circle.) Can you please let me know if this is normal and/or what the timeframe for this should be??
thanks!
