What facility do you use to search Embase (directly from the Elsevier site or from some other search access)? I don't have Embase access now so I'm providing suggestions and questions from memory. Please describe how you viewed and selected recor…

Background and context. HIPAA. Hospital administrators and lawyers are fearful of shadows. The least thing can lead to startle reactions before any thoughtful action. This will require time for the anxiety to diminish enough so that rules and techno…

Tags are useful for the read / to read indicator.

Consider using the tags function. See: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/32873/tag-papers-with-a-rating/ and https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/2585/rating-bookmarks/ and https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/43344/five-star-rating-system…

What version of Zotero? What OS? If an item is already in the target collection you cannot place it there again. Could that be the cause of your problem?

There is something else to consider. Although less often now than in the past, manuscript requirements may not exactly match what is printed in the journal. For example, some journals using Vancouver style want submitted manuscripts with reference n…

Please let us know what you learn from tech support. Many years ago my group toyed with the idea of using CuadraStar as a bibliographic database (it was the foundation of the early versions of PubMed). However, they insisted on hosting the db files …

Zotero can import files in formats other than bibtex and ris. See: https://www.zotero.org/support/import_formats The experts may need more information about the structure of the xml files exported by db/textworks. (There are many standard ways tha…

Update: I find that for some of the embedded metadata imports, only the first page is included in the pagination. So, not so perfect after all. Thanks

My database-driven website implemented this with unAPI/MODS. As I remember it required 8 to 10 hours of work by our developers. I'm not positive about the amount of time because we also added other metadata (GS/Highwire) to webpage headers at about …

Yes, if you mean that visitors to pages on the site can download metadata with one click of the Zotero icon. More information is needed for a better answer.
-
If it wasn't clear from my post above, Zotero _should_ flag items with identical ISBNs as duplicates. This, if only to indicate that something is wrong with the metadata in the Zotero record.
-
There should never be more than one book with the same ISBN. If it appears that two or more volumes have the same ISBN this should be an indicator that there is something wrong and things are not as they seem. The ISBN ftr lists above (978091228906…

Right click on a Mac https://support.apple.com/kb/PH21882?locale=en_US Or, you can do what I did and find a Logitec mouse that fits your hand and use that. The Mac will recognize the right clicks.

If the journal is indexed in MEDLINE and there are mulitple journals with the same name, the subsequent journal name(s) and abbreviation(s) will have the publication city appended to the journal's title and abbreviation. If the Zotero translator bri…

MA Liebert Pub. accepts manuscripts in Vancouver style. Use the superscript version.

Each article, report, and proceeding item on the SafetyLit site offers metadata downloads in several formats and includes a statement that "All SafetyLit records are available for automatic download to Zotero & Mendeley" For example see: htt…

The last time I paid attention, the subtitles were in the metadata. The early PubMed listings from this journal have the same problem until the records are edited. I get around this in SafetyLit by keying on the ISSN and using that as the authority …

Have you synced? Are you writing about your library on two computers? Please provide more information about your problems.

FYI Index Medicus began in the 19th century and continued through to the early 21st century. During the 1960s the National Library of Medicine began to use a mainframe computer to assist with the production of the Index Medicus -- a print-only publi…

Astrid -- you didn't say so but if you are using Firefox on a tablet you will not see an icon. If you are using Firefox on a laptop or desktop with Zotero installed you shouldn't need the bookmarklet. Lately, many journal publishers present web page…

Many masters and doctorial theses have ISBNs assigned -- some universities do this in the U.S. but, for the last ten to fiften years, most in Northeastern Europe publish theses with ISNBs.

I don't have an answer to your question and I have wondered about that myself. Your comment about the language field may reflect a misunderstanding of its purpose. See: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/item_types_and_fields Scroll down to the i…

You can consider deleting the bibliography and only creating it now-and-then. After verifying that everything is bibliographically correct you can delete it again. If you save-as; you will have incremental backups and you can start the next iteratio…

I understand and agree.

I think that the information you have provided above should be sufficient for initiating the changes to the existing style. The volunteers who do the style work have been very busy lately but will soon reply to your post. To others who read this p…

Deleting and re-inserting the bibliography should only be necessary one time. The bib should refresh properly after this one corrective measure.

I believe that you can by going to the next pages. But you may know that and mean 25 items at a time. Sadly, that is the limit.
