Using Zotero Plugin Template

Use case

Zotero plugin that eliminates the tedious task of adding the book information separately when adding a chapter from the RI OPAC. The plugin just automatically adds the info for any new chapters being added from the RI OPAC using Zotero Connector.

It also

  • fixes common mistakes in the title and creators (on by default).
  • deletes the attachment after the download (off by default).
  • allows you to fetch the publisher using the Google Books API. This however is not perfect and a bit more involved to set up. Instructions on how to set it up can be found here (off by default).

You can find these options in the plugin's preference pane.

Install

You can download this plugin for free on the releases page. Only the .xip-file needs to be downloaded. Instructions on how to install the .xip-file can be found here. Sadly, the plugin is only supported by Zotero 7 right now, which is still in beta. You can download it here. Make sure you have the setting Preferences > General > Automatically take snapshots when creating items from web pages enabled, otherwise the plugin will not function properly.

Contribute

If you should encounter any bugs, feel free open an issue. Any other forms of contribution are welcome, too - of course.

Credits

This plugin wouldn't have been possible without the Zotero Plugin Template. Thank you so much, @windingwind!

Also thank you for the publisher fetching feature request, @jbwaagmeester!
