It was my fault, the translator failed on the full text display of a book. When I went to the information page for the book instead everything worked as it should. I should have checked that before posting, I am sorry.
-
Scratch that, I was trying to import from the display page of the book, I went to the details page for the book and it imported. Sorry.
-
I am bumping this as I am having translator issues with Internet Archive.
-
@aurimas Yes that is what I was talking about.
-
It was the screen display method, which shows as a catalog entry on my Zotero button, but still has a translator error.
-
Well, one thing I can definitely do is thank you very much for you input and help. I fully agree that I am being placated by reference librarians with bunk explanations, and as a bourgeoning information professional I am borderline insulted by the …

This is all I was told: "There were some security concerns when our catalog had the MARC display records easily accessible the way the Toledo system is shown in the example Zotero support provided." If that's not helpful I am sorry.
-
After speaking with a reference librarian in person, what I was told was the bulk downloads were basically taking whole chunks of catalog information, and that the downloads originated from somewhere overseas. One of the explanations was that they …
-
They have told me they wont be putting the MARC data up any time soon. I did not actually get to speak with the systems librarian, they sent a message through a reference librarian to let me know. It seems there were quite a few instances of bulk …

Yeah, I could go to LoC, but since I have a user account at WSU I can just pull up my list of checked out books and, if it were working, import each one with a single click. I suppose, if I used this work around with the Endnote data, and I importe…
-
Excellent! Still more steps than I should have to take, but it gets it done! Worked like a charm, even with multiple entries!
-
Neither Endnote or ProCite data would import, I used both displayed data and emailed data. :( I hope they start including the data again.
-
I want to fully disclose that the librarians I spoke to were reference librarians, and therefore their understanding of the situation and my translation may not corroborate exactly what our systems librarian's rationale is. Also, I am not sure …
-
@noksagt; I was told that the amount of traffic that was part of the reason for the removal, so perhaps if our systems librarian peruses this thread they will feel better about keeping it up there. @adamsmith; Yes, I reread your response and r…

When I use the "Screen" option, with MARC selected as the output I get the translator error. Is there any way to import the MARC data that is emailed to me into Zotero? Sorry I'm being high maintenance on this.
-
I suspect it could have something to do with the PDFs embedded in the data!?! Maybe it is a backdoor way to get the articles without access to EBSCO et al. Since the systems librarian at WSU might look at this I want to suggest the removal of the …
-
So, it seems that they had to remove all of the MARC records from their catalog because of them being illegally downloaded. I don't quite understand how that's possible, but I am likely to find out at the end of this semester when I upload the arch…

Also, I was able to save a reference to the above item from Ester that you posted in response to msuvi, so yes, innoPAC does work for me elsewhere. That was what spurred me to post here actually. ;)
-
As in my Zotero, or as in the library end? Should I try a reinstall?
-
Or maybe not, perhaps I am just a poor go-between. Here is the chat transcript if that helps, I gave my librarian a link to this thread and... Christopher Erb: No worries Reference Staff Dunbar: Thanks for the thread. Unfortunat…
-
I think I can do that, thanks Adam!

I am still unable to save individual items accessed in any way from my library http://libraries.wright.edu, and when I try to select from a group on a search page, it does not actually import the item...
