CINAHL, ABI-Inform (requests from the CHHS department at George Mason University)

I've emailed the Copac folks, pointed them to this forum thread, and asked if they'd mind editing their COinS tags to remove the '.+creator'. I've also asked if they would consider including instructions for importing Copac citations into Zotero on…
-
"COinS can additionally be used by LibX and by a number of other bookmarklets, which make it easier to find downloadable copies of articles." This is a good point that Noksagt has made elsewhere on this thread, but bears emphasis: COinS tags can be…

Thanks for clarifying the distinction between the import and database connectivity tables, Noksagt. I'll add some explanatory language to that effect in the Wikipedia entry in the next few days, since others might make the same assumptions I did.
-
Noksagt, the comparison of reference management software on Wikipedia is a great resource. A few comments: the import table lists the following databases as unsupported by Zotero: Copac, CSA, ISI, Medline, Ovid, PubMed, SciFinder. I believe at l…

What a fabulous resource! I tested it on both individual records and search result lists. johnlknight and scot, thank you for bringing Copac to our attention. We plan to spotlight it on the Zotero blog in the next day or two.

pcad, Have you tried taking the original journal citation and running it through the COinS generator? Here's the link: http://gentest.ocoins.info/

sparkyc84, with respect to your first question about the 'Book Section" item type: you should be able to generate a properly formatted bibliographic entry by adding the chapter page numbers to the "Pages" field, at least when output in MLA style.

dmittleman, as a temporary workaround for synching your data, you can transfer your Zotero library from one machine to another on a USB drive. Please see the Zotero FAQ: How can I access my library from multiple computers? Can I store my Zotero li…

urschri, thank you for testing the Trinity College Dublin Library catalog. I've added it to the list of supported sites.
-
toddt, you might also consider creating a new collection in the left column of your Zotero pane, calling it something like "To Be Read." Then the next time you browse your favorite journal, you can opt to capture the references and download the ful…

I can speak to the first part of your question: because APA, MLA, and Chicago style all require the institution name (e.g., U of Illinois, George Mason University) in lieu of publisher for theses and dissertations, your best bet, as you suggest, is …

We do indeed have plans to add support for OpenOffice--it should happen sometime in 2007.

Hi Marbux, We hope to offer Zotero users the ability to import their Firefox bookmarks in the very near future. Thanks for the suggestion.
-
Hi kadji, Integration with MS Word is right around the corner. We should have a beta release by the end of January, with full release in the spring--just in time for those mid-term research papers.

From the Zotero documentation pages (http://www.zotero.org/documentation/organizing_your_library): To delete an item, select it and hit the Backspace or Delete key, or right-click (control click on Mac) and select “Delete Selected Item From Lib…

edubois, on exporting your library and importing it onto another computer, see this discussion thread: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/198/

Thanks, Zach. I wasn't able to reproduce this error myself, but will continue to watch for it. I'll also check with our programmer to see if I should enter a ticket for it, since you've supplied the relevant messages from the error console and oth…

Hi Zach, thanks for the report and error messages. Did any of the collections that you were able to successfully export include file attachments?
-
Thank you, aethralis. We're working to resolve the problem with Google Books, which received a major update earlier this week.
-
I haven't been able to reproduce this error myself. bdarcus, if it happens again, could you check your error console for error messages? See the advanced instructions for reporting bugs: http://www.zotero.org/documentation/reporting_bugs. That in…

Thanks Peter and others. I've reproduced the "saving item" error and have created a ticket for it.
-
noksagt, I'm re-posting your question to the development forum.
-
cm, we will be steadily adding more international databases to the list of compatible sites. I'll add Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.fr to the request list.
-
Rob, zotero supports Google Books and Google Scholar, but not google.com.
-
Thanks for the error report. Can you clarify what happens in the right column of the Zotero pane? Does it revert to an empty box with the words "No items selected"?
